Couperin's beautiful take on La Follia. Beautifully played, too :)

[@HarpsichordVinylGallery]

This has nothing to do with the folia chord progression or melody line. Not even a remote variation.

[@thyrn888]

Have to disagree with you. The first two phrases are almost a direct quote of La Folia.

@@thyrn888 In that case, you can call almost every tune a Folía. I once made a website (starting 1997) of all derivations and interpretations of the Folía-theme. Stopped in 2018 simply because there were too many. Hundreds and hundreds, and Louis Couperin definitely does not qualify. That site is still online and mentioned as a link in the Wikipedia dedicated to the Folía theme.
