This Polonaise in G minor by Wilhelm Friedemann Bach conveys a dance-like yet dramatic atmosphere, blending lightness with deep emotion. The student will encounter technical difficulties mainly related to managing nuances and tempo variations, requiring great expressiveness. Wilhelm Friedemann Bach, son of Johann Sebastian Bach, worked during a period when musical styles were beginning to diversify, reflecting the transition towards the Classical era.
