Bach - Orchestral Suite No. 3, II. "Air on the G String" (Mother 3 Soundfont) @ClassicalEntertainmentSystem

As requested by Euler981, here's a rendition of Bach's "Air on the G String" with the Mother 3 soundfont.

After the relatively large overture in the French style, the rest of the suite consists of a series of various dances that were popular in the Baroque period. The first of these dances, the Air, is a slow one and easily the most famous from this particular suite.

Having received wide exposure through an arrangement called "Air on the G String", this is one of Bach's most well-known pieces. Said arrangement aside, that is in no small part because of its soft, flowing melody.
Being the only slow dance of this suite, this is also the only movement to avoid using the trumpets and drums.
