I love this recording because it proves that a performance can be moving and captivating even on period instruments, without the "wear your heart on your sleeve" tactics typically employed by today's musicians. Sometimes the music speaks for itself. This is probably how the most pro musicians back in Corelli's day sounded

@LeoHareMusic Is that akin to 'FOLLY' (foolishness) and la 'FOLIE' (madness).?
-
Also it is called "Folia of Spain" (follia di Spagna, Folie d'Espagne etc.)
-
La Folia was a spanish dance, many musicians wrote variations on it.
-
It isn't. Arcangelo Corelli is the author of the piece, but he died in the 1713.

Does anyone have Carole Koenig's version of this song?!

@Fanart24 Fitting given the name of the song.
Such a pity that on internet people don't hesitate to insult each others so easily.

No, it doesn't. If you do a little research, you'll find it is not a cognate of "foliage" but comes from the Tuscan word "folle" and does mean folly.
