Regardless of how it was performed on harpsichord or organ at the time, when playing on a modern piano, it feels most important to express liveliness, joy, and good humor.
For the performance of a pair of slurred eighth notes, the second note should be shortened, essentially without emphasis, cut short with a light sound as if lifting the finger into the air. This is much like a violin bowing. If both notes are emphasized, it will sound extremely heavy. The emphasis should be applied only once.
The section around measures 9-10 can be considered a peak point where it modulates to E minor. E minor lasts for only four measures. After this, it returns to G major. Upon returning, the passage takes the form of a descending scale; therefore, gradually diminuendo until four measures before the end. From the last four measures, gradually crescendo to a forte, ending with liveliness.
