    Arcangelo Corelli (1653 - 1713) was a Baroque composer who set the standard for musical composition in his time. This piece is based on the last of his opus five violin sonatas, which includes twenty-four variations on the Spanish melody "La Follia". The arrangement presents five variations after the theme is introduced, with each upper-string section playing the tune fully against Corelli's original figurations. The main theme returns in an opulent manner.

    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.
