Hi Hector, thank you for the information. I hope that you'll be able to publish some of your research in scholarly journals, to make it more internationally accessible. I was mainly curious what you have written about the dances in the Thibault MS, and if there are any new concordances than those mentioned in Thibault 1958. I have the article by G.Thibault (Un manuscrit italien pour luth des premiA"res annA(c)es du XVIe siA"cle, pp. 43-76 in: J. Jaquot (ed.): Le luth et sa musique, Paris 1958) which contains transcriptions of pavana regia, saltarello, piva, pavana (fol.13r to 14r), a pavana (fol.25r) and a mysterious "calata" (fol.53). But Thibault (1958) did not include the basse danses of the manuscript (Basadanza, fol.15r and Spagna, fol.19v), so I was as hoping to find those somewhere.I found Sarge Gerbode's transcription of the Spagna in Thibault at [1]http://gerbode.net/composers/Anon/VMD/pdf/Vmd27_spagna.pdf , but not the Basadanza (which might be another version of the popular Spagna theme?) Best wishes Josef Berger

If you have any specific questions let me know. I am back at doing research on this topic and hope to publish something next year.
