La Follia (Corelli arr. Stephen Chin) for String Orchestra

Arcangelo Corelli (1653 - 1713) wrote music that everyone in his time tried to emulate.  He effectively set the benchmark for musical composition in the Baroque period.  This arrangement draws on the last of the twelve opus 5 violin sonatas, which are a set of twenty-four variations on an old Spanish melody entitled "La Follia".  Five variations are presented here after the theme is enunciated.  Each upper-string section plays the tune fully against some of Corelli's original figurations.  The main theme finally returns in an opulent manner. Grade 3.
