What is the difference between a Minuet and a Minuetto? Is there one? 

  • Quote

    One is French and the other is Italian.

    In addition to Monarcheon's post: there is no difference in form.

    I know that Menuetto and Minuet are Italian and French for the same dance.  Is there any musical difference between the two annotations? Haydn used both in his String Quartets

    Sometimes it’s Menuetto too.

    Is there a stylistic difference between a Menuetto and a Minuet?  Say is the former more of an Italian style than the latter?
