The French Suite No. 2 BWV 813 has six movements: Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Air, Minuet and Gigue, which, like French Suite No. 1, follows the general pattern of 4 basic movements, Allemande, Courante, Sarabande and Gigue, with any extra movements placed between the Sarabande and the Gigue.
The original work was in the key of C minor, and therefore I have moved the suite up to E minor, which is a much better key for the guitar to play.
