Corelli Recomposed by Elijax “La Follia” op. 5 no. 12

by Elijax

supported by

Mikkel Munch Mortensen A really nice mix of synths and classical instruments. The repetitiveness/variations of the same theme is a great peek into an aspect of composing that we don't often think about: The music we love and listen to every day might have ended up being (very) different. It just happened to be what it is, although several outcomes were possible when the artist set out on the creative journey.

Lionel Valdellon (Acid42) One chord progression with variations. It's a sweet hybrid of Bach and electro-ambient effects— music I never thought I needed, but am so glad to have found. Favorite track: Purported Dangers.

about

[ENGLISH]
The theme of Follia (in English: Madness) appears in music at the beginning of the fourteenth century. The first composer to write it down has been Arcangelo Corelli, in 1700, in the last of his twelve sonatas for violin and basso continuo. This theme inspired many important composers thereafter: Geminiani, Vivaldi, Bach, Handel, etc. With this elaboration I enjoyed composing an electronic version which melds real instruments with electronic ones.

[ITALIAN]
Il tema della Follia ricorre nella storia della musica almeno dal 1300. Il primo a scriverlo fu Arcangelo Corelli, nel 1700, l’ultima delle dodici sonate per violino e basso continuo. Il tema fu ripreso dai più illustri compositori (Geminiani, Vivaldi, Bach, Handel, e molti altri). Con questa elaborazione mi sono divertito a creare la mia versione elettronica, unendo alcuni suoni di strumenti acustici ad altri specificatamente sintetici.

Far from lackadaisical or categorically "chill", Shitao's Mono treasures space and knows exactly how to manage its presence in broad, lavish, but not necessarily bombastic rhythms. Matt DeMello (himself)
