At Northshield Dance Seminar, we used the Contrapasso music from Julia 
Sutton's translation of Nobilta di Dame (having been tipped off by Tibicen 
and the Waytes of Carolingia that it works).  But it was hard to read, with 
all the parts on one staff (as for piano) instead of multiple staves (as it 
usually is for wind instruments).  If there is better sheet music for this 
floating around in the SCA, I'd be interested in getting a copy.

Guilty.  I was playing it from memory last year, because I didn't have the 
sheet music with me.  ;-)

I have an old copy of a 5-part arrangement of Gracca apparently by William 
of Kingsbury, who no longer plays with the SCA in Jararvellir.  If no other 
arrangements are available, I can send this one to someone -- you, or Greg, 
or ...?
