23. A Merry Dance from A Little Suite in Baroque Style by Gillock
This piece is in ternary form.
A [a (measures 1-4) + a1 (measures 5-8)]
B [b (measures 9-12) + b1 (measures 13-16)]
A1 [a (measures 17-20) + c (measures 21-24)]
The main key is G major. In the a1 section (measures 5-8), it modulates partially to the dominant key of D major.
In the A section, the left hand features alternating quarter notes and quarter rests, which creates a rhythmic impression. Overall, it has a more lively atmosphere compared to the middle section B.
The B section is constructed with repeated scalar ascending and descending eighth-note passages. It begins with a monophonic texture in the left hand, followed by two voices moving in parallel motion, revealing polyphonic elements. Compared to the A section, the smooth motion created by these scalar eighth-note passages is striking, presenting a contrasting atmosphere to the A section.
