Partita Partita

Partita - Definition and Overview

Partita was originally the name for a single instrumental piece of music (16th and 17th centuries), but Johann Kuhnau and later German composers (notably Bach) used it for collections of musical pieces, as a synonym for suite.


Partita is also another name for the game Tarocchini.
