He introduced the sequence of movements-Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Gigue-which became universally adopted in the suite. Traveling widely as a keyboard virtuoso, Froberger was influenced by the great French lutenists, evidence of which appears in this Suite, particualarly in the use of ornaments and the free. movement of voices.
