Description
La Folia (literally "madness") was a Portuguese dance from the Renaissance, and it has been used by many composers in the ensuing centuries.
This is based on my bossa nova version, originally written for a consort of cellos.
The pdf file contains score and parts.
The 2nd bass part can also be performed on contrabass flute
