Q. What is Early Music performance, or historical performance?
A. We play on instruments from the time of the composers, and we use the
original music and playing techniques: it’s a special sound.
Q. Why are there no conductors?
A. Conductors weren’t invented until the 19th century; since we seek to
recreate a historical performance, the music is led from the keyboard or
violin, or the music is played as chamber music~or both :)
Q. What are period instruments or original instruments; how are they
different from modern instruments?
A. As instruments became modernized in the 19th century, builders and
players tended to focus on the volume of sound and the stability of tuning.
Modern steel strings replaced the older materials, and instruments were
often machine made. Historical instruments, built individually by hand and
with overall lighter construction, have extremely complex overtones-which
we find delightful. Modern instruments are of course perfectly suited to
more modern music.
Q. Why is the pitch lower, or higher?
A. Early Music performance uses many different pitches, and these pitches create different tone colors on the instruments. See goo.gl/pVBNAC
The original title reads "Folias Echa Para Mi Señora Doña Tarolilla De Carallenos" (Primo libro di canzone, Naples, Paolini & Ricci, 1650). The composition uses the technique of "wandering variation," pioneered by Monteverdi and others, in which the composer creates musical episodes in the form of brief excursions from the standard variation pattern. Falconieri also adds a brief adagio to provide a moment of harmonic and rhythmic contrast before the final variations.
The continuo group is here represented by the viola da gamba, organ, archlute and triple harp: in the 17th century it was not unusual to have a rich and varied continuo group; each player improvises a part that creates a unique "voice" in the texture as well as blends together to form a complete accompaniment.

bellissimo
I love you.
Kons Fuzius awwwwww.......
Voices of Music any pointers how I can find similar music? It is joyful and playful and complex and just great.
+Kons Fuzius Check other videos by Voices of Music, and search TH-cam for oher Folias - it's a really ancient chord sequence, with lots of people having contributed, from Renaissance masters to Corelli, Vivaldi, Salieri too, and even Rakhmaninoff (his Folia is called "Variations on the Corelli theme"). Good luck!
I love you too
awwwww....
Lindo
Reminds me of „Laudate Dominum” (Jacques Berthier, Taizé) somehow ... could there be a link? ...

The Summer of 2019 BBC article on "La Folia" mentioned that it was "loud and lively." www.bbc.com/culture/story/20190726-could-la-folia-be-historys-most-enduring-tune
La Monica is history's most enduring tune. La Follia certainly comes close! And it does sound similar to the Handel Sarabande.....
what instrument which played by the red guy on the left? is it recorder, flute, or... ?
+Andika Hadi Hutama She's playing a recorder.
Bravi! :) Is that an early baroque style recorder?
Thank you, Luca. It's a Ganassi style recorder, which is earlier. They were still playing recorders like this in the early 17th century. Instrument makers of the 17th century experimented with a number of different designs without settling on a finished version; for this reason, 17th century recorders are sometimes referred to as "transitional instruments”.
what to say about this flute.
Would this be an inspired early interpretation of La Folia (more rhythmical) as opposed to the later Folia inspired by Lully’s arrangement?
There's a long series of Folia settings dating back to the renaissance. This is in the 17th century Italian style, Lully's music is more French. When Corelli published his solo setting in Opus 5, these variations were widely imitated, in particular by Vivaldi and Geminiani.
This was published in Naples in 1650, about 20 years before Lully's variations on "La Folia", and 50 years before Corelli. It is indeed perhaps the earliest of the "modern" type of folias.
Wow, hot breeze is in the air. What a seducing, amorous volta! I absolutely love it!
I wonder how the Tambourinist knew what patterns to play.
Is there a convention for early baroque percussion?
He improvised....
not enough likes!
The emails announcing your performances are like special gifts interspersed with all the emails I have to answer. I always stop whatever I am doing to listen.
Thank you, Elizabeth!
