Dear Lex,
Yes, the piece appears on folio 63v of Valderrábano's book. Phalèse
nicked quite a few things from Valderrábano, and didn't always get them
right.
At the beginning of this piece three voices enter one after the other.
It is odd that the second voice in both sources has an extra note to
start, and I wonder if that is a mistake.
What is definitely a mistake is Phalèse missing out one of
Valderrábano's bars (which equals half one of Phalèse's bars), so that
the bass doesn't imitate the other two voices. To aid comparison, I'll
notate both sources in French tablature. (Don't forget to read the music
with a mono-spaced font like Courrier, or the vertical alignment will go
to pot.) The first four bars are the same in each source.

This music also appears in Silva de Sirenas by Valderrabano of 1547.
He probably is the composer.
