A few of Bach’s works survive only in her hand. She also would complete the performing parts for cantatas to be sung in Leipzig churches. She often worked as a copyist, transcribing her husband’s music which she sold as a means to contribute to the family’s income. Anna Magdelena Bach continued to sing professionally after her marriage and it is thought that the Bachs’ shared interest in music contributed to their happy marriage. They were married on the 3rd December 1721, 17 months after his first wife, Maria Barbara Bach, had died. This is where Johann Sebastien Bach had been working as Capellmeister (director of music) since 1717. In 1721 Anna Magdelena was working as a singer (she was a soprano) at the court of Anhalt-Cöthen.

Neoclassical examples of the minuet include Johannes Brahms’s Serenade No.

In most of his symphonies Beethoven replaced the minuet with a scherzo (although he did not always use that term as a designation for the movement), similar or identical in form but much faster and more exuberant. Typically, the third movement of a Classical chamber work (e.g., string quartet) or symphony is a minuet. The minuet frequently appears in 18th-century suites (groups of dance pieces in the same key), and in Mozart’s opera Don Giovanni onstage musicians play a minuet at the close of the first act. Each consists of two repeated phrases (AA–BB), but the repetition may be varied (AA′–BB′). Musically, the minuet is in moderate triple time (as 3/ 4 or 3/ 8) with two sections: minuet and trio (actually a second minuet, originally for three instruments it derives from the ballroom practice of alternating two minuets).
