To expand upon what Judith posted:


I have produced reconstructions and backup material for the following dances:

Goioso Spangnuolo (15thc Italian)
	handout, plus sheet music & practice CD based on Monica Cellio's
work for Joy & Jealousy (yes, I asked Monica if I could copy it) - i.e.,
it's electronic music

from Caroso (1581), I have handouts, sheet music (four-part arrangements),
and a practice CD for the following six dances:
Villanella
Dolce Amoroso Fuoco
Contrapasso Nuovo
Il Piantone
Ballo del Fiore in terzo
una pavana all'Italiana (first section of Pavana Matthei)

The latest versions of these have some minor corrections from the
versions I handed out at the two June events in Dragonship Haven and
Caerthe.  The practice CD has the correct tempo and repeats for each
dance, including a really bouncy nine-minute Ballo del Fiore (74
repeats) which is almost entirely a couple of variations - this is not
your usual Ballo del Fiore.  Il Piantone and the pavana are heavily
structured to match my reconstructions.  Contrapasso Nuovo has all the
internal repeats written out, so it cannot easily be used for a
Contrapasso with a different repeat structure - if someone needs that,
I can do a suitably modified version, but my musicians wanted it all
written out.
