Georg Friederich Händel (1685-1759): Suite in D Minor for harpsichord (HWV 437)
3. Sarabande
This is Handel's treatment of the "La Folia"/"Folies d'Espagne" theme, originally for harpsichord, but widely played on strings (e.g. in the movie "Barry Lyndon"). My arrangement is for mandolin quartet (two mandolins, mandola and mandocello), adapted from a string quartet score I found at:
