Go through the London manuscript. The suites #1 (F, fol. 1), #13 (d, fol.
56v), #19 (d, fol. 91) are good for starters IMO. The suites in F and d in
the Dresden ms. aren't more difficult, but they require 13 courses.
BTW I'd always save preludes for the last.

I'd suggest Sonate 34 in D-minor, especially the menuets
