Xavier Jara plays Folias Italianas by Santiago de Murcia (1673-1739)

Performed on December 8th, 2019 at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. During the recital, this piece was paired with Ponce's Folias variations and Fugue for modern guitar. That video is also available on this channel. One of the earliest harmonic progressions, the Folias, in D minor, is a Sarabande with a harmonic progression which makes a perfect palindrome, D-A-D-F-C-F-D-A-D.
