Italian Concerto in F Major by Bach

This piece brings back a lot of memories of high school when I played this piece. It is a perfect example of terenary form because it has an A section, a B section, and a return of the A section. The left hand accompaniment is pretty static with ascending chords up three half steps with syncopated eighth motion on topic. This piece begins in a minor key and then moves into the relative major and then returns to the expository section in minor. The hands seem to be talking to each other with the way the melodic and rhythmic patterns play back and forth. It's a very relaxing and contemplative piece. The A section is a contrasting period. There are many rhythmic motives. The fluctuation of the tempo almost makes the piece sound like it is from the romantic era.
