Link: Corelli – Sonate für Blockflöte und Basso Continuo “La Follia”

“Corelli was a superstar in London, and although he was never there, his music was omnipresent. His violin sonatas op. 5 were particularly popular and were republished dozens of times and decorated in ever crazier ways – including for the recorder. Speaking of crazy: the last of the 12 sonatas, “La Follia” (“the follies”) is a series of variations on the famous Follia bass, in which the upper voice and the basso continuo play themselves more and more into madness.” – Max Volbers
