Kaddee Crottier wrote in the Spring of 2000 for the recital 'Music before 1750 by Spanish composers' of Luther College Collegium Musicum: Partite sopra La Aria della Folia da Espagna (Partita on the Melody Folia da Espagna) consists of a theme with four variations. While the chord progression remains the same, the easily recognizable melody enjoys ornamental variations. The theme and first variation place the melody in the right hand with a simple chordal accompaniment in the left hand. In the second and third variations, the melody starts in the bass, but it occasionally swiches to the treble. The final variation introduces triplets as a new rhythmic component to the variation.
