These sinfonias are also known as "three part inventions". I like number 11 because it was easy to learn it smile

Is #7 in E Major?

I should know this, huh? If it is in E my student just finished learning it. But it could be #6 that she learned, that is if it is in E.

I remember keys not numbers.

I'd learn one that goes with a two part invention you play. I did that with #1 and #6, should attack #'s 4 and 10 but am too lazy.

15 and 2, but that's about it. This is my least favorite group of Bach compositions, down the bottom near the English Suites.
