Gavotte en Rondeau, the third movement of the Suite in G minor, BWV 822, which survives in a single manuscript copy in Leipzig. An eight-bar refrain in cut time, played twice, returns after each of two episodes, and the piece ends with it. This edition follows that manuscript, Peters Ms. 8 in the Bach-Archiv Leipzig, and writes the returns out.
