This piece was written in High School along with the 4 Dances. I was playing the little keyboard pieces of J. S. Bach and had become enamored with 2-voice Baroque counterpoint. However, I couldn't resist allowing myself to go as far afield as I wanted with modulations. Apparently Bach did so also when he was improvising.
