This is a great addition to any serious musician who also happens to like very much Handels Suites of 1720. Here we find Bach emulating Handel in his use of 32nd note runs and harpeggio sections, which Handel employed to very good effect. It doesnt seem like authentic Bach, but its very much Bach. Or, put another way, Bach putting on Handel. Depending on how one treats the fast runs or Fantaisie elements this piece can be viewed as extremely hard to play, or fun to play around with non mesure which is to say, in the French way, there is no real demarcation between measures and their metre. So, play on and enjoy!
