The “La Folia” progression
It’s so simple but I just love how it dabs between the minor and relative major tonality. This chord
progression is very old (hundreds of years old) and has been used throughout history up to today.
It originally comes a musical form known as “La Folia” which was basically a theme and variations
ver a chord progression. Although originally many folias had their distinct chord
progressions the own above become very standard by the baroque era (in a compound period form: one
round go the progression ending on a half cadence and the next one on an authentic cadence.)
Even in the late romantic era folias were still composed (Rachmaninoff made one for example.)
The folia is similar to the passacaglia and other ground bass progressions and forms.
this was said by a friendly redditor

1Minblock9th-7aug7th#9-4Minblock9th-3aug7th#9-5Dom7thflat9
it's a fun evil chord progression with my preferred way of playing this the bass should go is
1-7-4-3-5 and the chord inversion only really changed space twice
1maj-1+16-17
