The baroque music group La Folía was founded in Madrid in 1977 to perform a sixteenth-, seventeenth- and eighteenth-century repertoire on historical instruments. Its name is derived from the folia, a popular form of music with variations that marked an important contribution of Iberian music to the baroque repertoire.
With a variable number of performers depending on the chosen repertoire, La Folía is intensively involved in recovering and disseminating baroque music, often working on monographic themes and performing within and outside Spain at important concert halls and festivals.
