Sorry... Introducing the term _song form_ is my fault. Pure imprecision... In my work precision of terminology is pathological, so I guess I rebel in other domains. cud __________________________________________________________________

I.E. you might have realized that a "Canario" is a _dance_ form, so you could have googled for "canario dance form" which will instantly point you to the wikipedia article (not too good, as to be expected) as well as to "[1]http://turtelsandtwins.blogspot.de/2011/01/canario-of-renaissance-b aroque.html" which is a pretty good summary and some references to the standard work on such matters (conserning Spain): Dance and Instrumental Diferencias in Spain During the 17th and Early 18th Centuries Maurice Esses Pendragon Press, 1992 That book is a must if you want to perform spanish guitar music. The comentary book on Codex Saldivar has a section on Canarios as well and I can't imagine that the New Grove Dictionary doesn't have an entry.
