The Minuet in G minor, BWV Anh. 115, is a short keyboard dance in the 1725 Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, where it is the fifth piece. It follows the Minuet in G major, BWV Anh. 114, the fourth piece, and the two make a pair. The notebook mixes music by Bach with pieces by other composers, and it is known by the date on its title page. That date, 1725, belongs to the notebook and does not tell us when the minuet was composed. The minuet was long printed under Johann Sebastian Bach's name, but it is now attributed to Christian Petzold, a German organist and composer who lived from 1677 to 1733. Anna Magdalena Bach copied both minuets from a larger suite by Petzold, and because she copied them into a notebook that also holds music by Bach, the pieces were long taken for Bach's own. Hans-Joachim Schulze set out the attribution in 1979 in an article in the Bach-Jahrbuch. Petzold was an organist in Dresden who became court organist and harpsichordist there in 1709. The Minuet in G major is the best-known piece by Petzold. The Bach catalogue keeps the old numbering. BWV Anh. 115 is an appendix number given to pieces that were once linked to Bach. The piece was written for harpsichord or another keyboard, so a piano score of it is an edition or adaptation of that keyboard music.
