A set of 41 of them, most of which had their manuscripts personally engraved by the composers, makes up the bulk of Christophe Graupner's work for solo harpsichord. A set of six six-movement ones written primarily for oboe and basso continuo comprises Die Kleine Cammer-Music by Georg Telemann. An allemande and an "English" bourree respectively open and close the one in A minor for solo flute written by Johann Sebastian Bach.
