  Minuet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stylistically refined minuets, outside of the social dance context, were introduced — to opera at first — by Jean-Baptiste Lully, and in the late 17th century the minuet was adopted into the suite, such as some of the suites of Johann Sebastian Bach and Georg Friedrich Händel.
A minuet was often used as the final movement in an Italian overture.
Initially, before its adoption in context outside of social dance, the minuet was usually in binary form, with two sections of usually eight bars each, but the second section eventually expanded, resulting in a kind of ternary form.

The minuet ia danced by one couple alone on the floor while the rest of the company looks on.

This line, then, was noticeably lacking in Darley Arabian influence, until it was introduced via Waxy to produce two classic winners, Music (1810, Waxy-Woodbine), who won the Oaks and was second in the 2,000 Guineas, and Minuet (1812, Waxy-Woodbine).
