The Diferencias sobre La Folia survive in a manuscript of the Spanish composer Antonio Martín y Coll (c.1660-c.1740). They are a typical example of the development of instrumental variation over traditional basses, melodies and dances in the late 17th century. Martín y Coll grew up in a monastery and eventually became a Franciscan friar. The last years of his life were spent in the monastery of San Francisco el Grande in Masdrid. Though primarily an organist, Martín y Coll also wrote a pair of treatises (1714 and 1734). However, his modern fame rests on four volumes of the Flores de Música (Musical flowers), a collection of hundreds of pieces. The works in the fifth volume of the Flores de Música, called Ramillete oloroso: suabes flores de música are generally assumed to be Martín y Coll's own compositions. Two of these works are variations (diferencias) on La Folia - a long Diferencias sobre las Folías and a shorter Folías. Further more, it is sure that the secular works - such as La Folia - would have been just appropriately played on gamba , with harpsichord (or organ, or lute) as sustaining instrument. • Higini, Anglés (1975): Scripta musicologica. • Hesperion XX: Savall, Jordi (viola da gamba) Smith, Hopkinson (guitar) 'El Barroco Español, Tonos humanos & Instrumental music c.1640-1700' John H. Baron wrote as part of the introduction for the LP Folge 7 with three compositions of Martín y Coll. Source / Web : | Nichifor, Serban, editor of the original manuscript | | |||
