Kedves Olvasó!
Ma Arcangelo Corelli olasz, barokk zeneszerzőről írok pár sort.
Corelli az olasz barokk kiemelkedő alakja, munkássága középpontjában a hegedű állt, de benne tisztelhetjük a concerto grosso műfajának megteremtőjét is. Zeneszerői munkássága mellett a XVII. századi Itália elsőszámú hegedűse.
A mai zenemű a La Folia, ami az opus 5 hegedűszonáta sorozat utolsó darabja. A folia régi 3/4 portugál tánc, ostinatobasszustémára épített variációsorozat, rokonműfaj a chaconne-nal és a passacaglia-val.
A mű előadói Henryk Szeryng világhírű lengyel hegedűművész és Huguette Dreyfus francia csembalóművésznő.
