Thanks for the prompt help in finding scores for Capirola's "Balletto".
I had several versions, any one of which would have been fine.

I assume the name "Balletto" is 16th century Italian for "dance".

Did Capirola have a specific dance-type in mind (like waltz,
tango, pavan, ...), and intend the music to be actually incident to
dances?

Or did he instead just think the piece reminiscent of dancing in
general, like a symphonic movement labeled "minuet"?
