No headband today. This isn't a mission. Just demonstrating where the inspiration for my 'La Folia' cadenza came from. Arcangelo Corelli's Concerto Grosso no. 12 in F Major, op. 6, 3rd movement (Adagio). 'La Folia' is in D minor and the key signatures of D minor and F major are close enough that I could jump between the two without it sounding odd so I got lucky there. Check out the actual cadenza video's descripton for information on the performance that inspired it.
Sorry for the sound quality. Hard to record myself and the computer's audio with one device. It's also hard to follow along without seeing beats or a conductor so it felt like I was playing catchup or slowing down to keep with the piece. I played along with this piece:
youtu.be/QyFeZ3wvDyg?t=298
Had to tune down to 415hz for this one. I kinda like the way my instrument sounds. My strings vibrate a bit more due to them being more slack, however.
