Suite in D minor

by Louis Couperin

Composed 1650–1661
Works 10

Suite of pieces in D minor — the largest key group in the Bauyn Manuscript, reflecting the special status of D minor as a key of gravitas and pathos in 17th-century French keyboard music. Includes two unmeasured preludes, multiple allemandes, courantes, and sarabandes. The D minor pieces are among Couperin's most harmonically expressive.
