I like that group, have another of their CD's; odd, spirited.

"Brande Champanje" 

I would guess its a mispellynge of Bransle de Champange; more nameing the
dance than any particular tune.  With reason to celebrate the harvest
yearly, and ample libation available for inspiration, no wonder the french
have a large variety of tunes so labeled.  Arbot describes steps for that
dance; you will find a number of tunes in Attaignants dance publications
(modern edition LPM AD1-7); perusal of Brown might turn up some more in
other period anthologies.
