Beats me. That's part of the scheduling quandry; I didn't do the pile
for the past couple of years, my good copy with extra inserts is
lord-knows-where (but my housemate did find the keys I lost 1 year
ago, behind my hammer dulcimer), etc. Someone needs to surf through
Eric P's collection plus my Caroso webpages and see what music
actually works with which dances.

I believe all the Contrapasso dances go to the same music, albeit with
different repeat structures.

The beginner topicals are balanced by type of dance, and the folks
volunteering to teach 15cI topicals had things they wanted to teach. I
suspect it won't be that big of a problem to have a 1 year lapse;
Judith is doing 8 hours total of ball prep over 4 days, and those same
5 dances have been on the Ball list for, er, 6 or 7 years running.

What definitely didn't work last year was doing a Canary when it
hadn't been taught in a while. Judith did do it in the ball prep, but
everyone else had forgotten it.
