Notes on the Sarabande
It is believed that Telemann was more famous than J.S. Bach because Bach was too progressive, actively incorporating many convoluted and forbidden compositional techniques. Examples include the dissonant chord with overlapping E and F on the downbeat of the second beat of measure 1, or the forceful modulation when transitioning from measure 25 to measure 26. Such results were likely due to these "forbidden" compositional methods.
As a performance hint, such dissonant and surprising progressions should rather be emphasized in performance.
This Sarabande comes with a variation version. The variation version features many small note values, so when playing these small notes, choose a comfortable tempo and set it accordingly.
Play the original Sarabande first, and when repeating, play the variation version. Similarly, for the second half, it is advisable to play the original first and the variation version second.
