    La Follia By Corelli Arr Stephen Chin

    Arcangelo Corelli (1653 - 1713), a celebrated Italian composer of the 17th century, left an indelible mark on Baroque music. His compositions were highly influential, and his style was emulated by many of his contemporaries. This arrangement is based on the twelfth and final sonata from Corelli's Opus 5 collection of violin sonatas, which is a set of twenty-four variations on the popular Spanish melody "La Follia". The piece begins by introducing the theme, followed by five variations that feature Corelli's original figurations played by each upper-string section against the full rendition of the tune. The main theme returns at the end, presented in a lavish and grandiose manner, bringing the piece to a satisfying close.
