The concert was held at CentroCentro, a cultural venue in the Palacio de Cibeles, in the centre of Madrid. This municipal centre stands out for its contemporary cultural programming and for hosting concerts and artistic activities within series such as SINETIQ. Música sin etiquetas, devoted to innovative music that knows no stylistic boundaries.
Folia is a traditional European melody and dance widespread in the Baroque, characterised by a repetitive structure that serves as the basis for elaborate instrumental variations and ornamentation.
