A gavotte is a French dance form that originated in the 16th century and became popular in the Baroque era (roughly 1600-1750). It is characterized by its moderate tempo, often in 2/2 or 4/4 time, and its distinctive rhythmic pattern that typically begins on the second beat of the measure. This gives it a graceful, often light, and sometimes stately feel.
