First published: unknown. Completeness: unknown.Gavotte is an animated A-minor dance whose recurring pickup circles around neighboring notes. Alternating bass notes and chords support the opening before the texture becomes increasingly exposed. The pickup and opening eight measures establish a recurring upper turn and a firm dance pulse. Short running passages expand the tune before it reaches the point marked Fine. The following section develops a more continuous eighth-note pattern, with accents and stronger dynamics adding urgency. The accompaniment then thins, leaving chromatic upper gestures separated by rests. The final written passage leads into a Dal Segno return. The opening dance is heard again, concluding at the earlier Fine. Interesting fact: The return is marked D.S. al Fine: it goes to the printed sign, giving the recurring dance a specifically designated point of re-entry.
