About this piece

La Folia is a centuries-old traditional theme/harmonic framework that became a major vehicle for variation sets across Europe. One of the most influential versions is Corelli’s “La Folia”, published in 1700 as the final sonata of his Op. 5 No. 12, a celebrated set of variations for violin and continuo.

This arrangement brings that iconic Baroque variation language to tin whistle, supported by a basso continuo (B.C.) accompaniment concept — ideal for studying phrasing, articulation, breath control, and building a historically-inspired performance with harmonic grounding.
