This courante is identifiable as a French-style courante, indicated by its 3/2 time signature. The piece contains many two-voice sections and is not technically very difficult, which might lead one to rush the tempo. However, the tempo should not be fast; instead, choose a tempo that does not convey a sense of busyness.

Furthermore, this courante clearly distinguishes between minor and major sections. The presence of solid major cadences makes the modulation to major evident. When entering the major sections, try changing the tone to be softer, gentler, and more delicate. This alone will significantly alter the impression.

The major sections are approximately measures 6-9 (G major) in the first half and measures 17-21 (D major) in the second half. When the major section concludes and the piece returns to minor, revert to the original severe tone and volume.
