Me: “Wow, Type C in Tetris sure is great! It sounds almost Bach-esque! Wait, it IS one of Bach’s pieces!”
(looks up the recording of the Menuet of BWV 814, French Dance Suite no. 3 in B Minor)
Me: “Wait, why did the Tetris one sound...off?”

Me: “...This is in F# Minor...”
J.S. Bach’s French Suites
French Suite #3 in B Minor, BWV 814 - Menuet & Trio
Bach’s six French Suites, BWV 812-817 are among the composer’s most satisfying melodious works for keyboard. Less demanding than the great English Suites and Partitas, they represent Bach at his most tuneful and galant, giving the lie to any notion that his music was always severe in its contrapuntal demands, or lacking in melodic sensuousness. Completing this set are the short preludes from the Clavierbüchlein for Wilhelm Friedemann, composed to develop the musical skills of Bach’s children.
