Composed by Arcangelo Corelli. Arranged by Paul Wood. This edition: pdf, streaming. Baroque, Romantic Period. 42 pages. MyMusicScores.com #1388056. Published by MyMusicScores.com (A0.1828193).Corelli (after Hubert Leonard): La Folia (Arr. Violin & String Orchestra)
“From Baroque ground bass to concert showpiece” — a big, brilliant set-piece for advanced violinists.
La Folia is one of the great “evergreen” themes of Western music: a hypnotic chord pattern that generations of composers have turned into increasingly imaginative variations. In this concert arrangement (after Hubert Leonard), the solo violin moves from elegant Baroque-style figuration to full-blooded virtuoso writing, making it an ideal centrepiece for a serious programme.
What makes this version especially satisfying is the orchestral experience. Instead of a keyboard reduction, the string orchestra provides rhythmic bite, harmonic colour, and a real sense of stage drama, giving the soloist something to play against as the variations build in intensity.
