I used to play a section of this song, but I butchered it. I was always poorly equipped for Bach’s staccato notes. This gentleman aced it!!! I was thinking, “So that’s what that song was supposed to sound like.” 😂😂😂
Lovely picture, also. It reminds me of a picture of my sister and me in the field by the creek at Granny’s farm. Thank you for this beautiful interlude in my day!

I only played a portion of it and did that poorly.

From what I’ve gathered online, this is Bach’s piano arrangement of the Oboe Concerto in D minor, attributed to Alessandro Marcello:
