🇫🇷Jean-Philippe Rameau ： Pièces de clavecin Suite No.3 doigts Le lardon Menuet

This witty minuet is included in Rameau’s collection of harpsichord pieces. Built on the poised triple-meter flow of a dance, it catches the ear with light, nimble gestures suggestive of the title “Le Lardon” and with the brisk exchange of its phrases. In performance, avoid making every beat equally heavy; instead, preserve a buoyant dance character while keeping the roles of melody and accompaniment clear. Carefully shape the phrase divisions and changes in repeated passages, and play the ornaments with a natural lightness that does not interrupt the flow, allowing both the humor and elegance to emerge.
