This raises a question as well: Where would one have found this "renaissance 
audience?"

I think this one wins the prize, but I am not sure variations on this
kind should win, as they are a sort of grab bag one could select from
for any particular performance. I think even a Renaissance audience
would be put to sleep by an hour-long set of variations.

So what's the longest non-variation piece?
