about

The Tunesmiths challenge that brought about this piece was to use the La Folía chord sequence to write a song. La Folia was a major musical phenomenon of the baroque era and comprised a simple 16-bar chord sequence - seen by many as a forerunner of the 12-bar blues. With that in mind, I set some well-known blues sentiments to the La Folia chord structure to suggest that the blues were around before the blues were around.

Starting off with a harpsichord sound, it then made sense to invite my wife Jill to play a stellar recorder solo to add to the overall baroque feel.
