The Musical Suite, a sequence of dances developed in the early 17th century, originally consisted of the elements Allemande – Courante – Sarabande – Gigue. In later days, the sequence could be amended by additional dances such as Menuett, Gavotte, Bourrée, or Passepied and opened by an Ouverture; the Gigue was always the Finale. The probably most famous examples of the Baroque Suite can be found in the works of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), most notably the suites for Violin and Violoncello solo, as well as the French and English Suites for Piano and the Suites for Orchestra.
