Thank you for this, Val. Once again the French lead the way and have

If you put a chord to each note on the bass line (easy to do) you
sometimes would
I think you could play a chord on every bass note without too much
trouble. Two other techniques I've seen/heard/played are:
Strumming the rhythm of the top line;
subdividing into eighth-note strum patterns at the end of section,
especially leading into a repeat. This provides a nice
It's nice on the R guitar when the 4-part harmonies work but that is
pretty rare. These bransles work best if the rhythm is accented rather
than the harmonies so I'd find a strum that works about twice a
measure and make sure a melody on the top works. For variation I'd rob

Yup, what you end up doing depends a great deal on the tempo. Then you
have to use your ear. Over-playing and harmonizing each bass note is
the temptation. The best continuo players I've seen often do less
rather than more, really using the chord sounds as punctuation, and
never letting
I think the comment about looking for the correct tempo by knowing how
it was danced is spot-on. There are now quite a few Renaissance dances
filmed and available on YouTube. Assuming that these troups are performing
the dances correctly, an average tempo for a dance like #s 39 40,
