I agree with Rainer. For folks not used to early music, l dances make
for a very accessible introduction. Audiences enjoy things like the
Dalza "suites", Attaingnant dances, etc. Even a "greatest hit" like
Dowland's Lachrimae is a dance. Usually, phrases are fairly regular in
dances and there is at least a regular pulse that will be familiar for
modern listeners.
Without dances, you're left with fantasies and intabulations, which are
less regular in their phrase structure and periodic rhythmic units.
While I'd certainly include a few of these, too much may be off-putting
for novice listeners.
