Menuets I and II
Minuet I is consciously behaved and appears in D minor.
Minuet II, on the other hand, is in D major, and therefore also much more majestic. It was played three times.
The arrangement also contains the minor movements for trumpet. The D major movements can also be performed with a natural trumpet en D.
