African or European? Sorry, wrong film. Italian or Burgundian?

For Italian, something like the existing arrangements you've done
would be great. A Rostiboli-style tenor line also is good.

I haven't seen it at Pennsic. One challenge with that is that it would
work best with a single person playing a loud instrument doing the
improvisation.
