The manuscript of suite no. 6 in f major is dated March 1985 and it is the longest of the six baroque suites. The opening ‘Prelude-Allemande’ is followed by a compound ‘Menuet’, continues with a grandiose ‘Sarabande’, and ends with a virtuoso ‘Ground Bass’ - an elaborate division variation with the note values of the opening theme divided into ever smaller units, as in Handel’s keyboard suites.
