pennsicdance: ball suggestions

[Greg Lindahl]

Following up on Zhena's constructive criticism:

Any inputs for next year's ball list? As usual, the dances will be
done in rotation of both style and difficulty, so if you'd like
something new, it will likely replace a dance of similar style and
difficulty.

For 16th century Italians, please make sure freely-copyable music is
available. We have time to transcribe if any are needed; we do have a
copyable distribution of Vilanella, by the way.

The existing list is:
