The etymology of the word "minuet" itself means "small," and it was known as a dance characterized by small, graceful steps. It is important that it be gentle. Please consider it a gentle and elegant dance, not one that is virtuosic and forward-moving like a gigue.
The highest note in this minuet is the H in the right hand in measure 25; even here, play it elegantly and lightly, without producing an overly harsh sound.
I will describe two commonly observed (or heard) problems:
- When playing the trill attached to the half note in the first beat of the right hand in measure 4, some performers begin with F-sharp; however, since this trill is attached to E, it should begin on E.
- Another issue arises in cases like measure 7, where the right hand has triplets and the left hand has a dotted eighth note plus a sixteenth note. While it is preferable for the sixteenth note of the dotted eighth plus sixteenth to be played after the last note of the triplet, some performers play measure 7 in this manner, but then in measures 23-24, they align the sixteenth note with the last note of the triplet.
Personally, I believe it is better to maintain consistency: either align them or displace them.
