Corelli - 'La Folia' for Viola: Variation 10 - Vivace; Variation 11 - Meno mosso
July 18, 2020
Difficulty (10): 3/5
Difficulty (11): 2/5
Day 8 of a video journal of me attempting the theme and its 24 variations of Arcangelo Corelli's 'La Folia' op. 5, no. 12 for viola and piano.
I like the intensity and dynamics numbers 10 and 11 feature. The sudden jumps from forte to piano, which I feel my phone isn't picking up so well on hearing this, make them quite interesting. I'll have to exaggerate those in the future. I also have too much fun with variation 11. I like how gallopy it sounds. The stinging staccatissimo on the low notes to the galloping staccatto on the upper notes makes me crack a smile. The string crossings really make the body get into it as well.
