This is a bassa danza in a very similar style to Corona. This one is by Guglielmo Ebreo, from "Dei Pratica sue Arte Tripudii", translated by Barbara Sparti. The dance is listed as "for two dancers", although it could be done by couples in a column. |

1In some reconstructions, the meza-volta is given as being done at the end of the second double, in "no time". Given Guglielmo's statements about timing of the meza-volta, and the matching of it with a riverenza earlier, I can't see any justification for this.
