Martyn, Do you think a 4-3 cadence is always required in this repertoire? Or do you think a plain major chord might, possibly, be an element of the style? O would a plain chord only have been played by low-level amateurs? I actually am happy enough to play from Italian or Spanish sources

Very interesting example, Monica, thanks for posting it. I wasn't aware of that technique for indicating time. Thank you, also for pointing out the mistake in the D major chord. I have uploaded a corrected version. I think anyone who spends time with this repertoire finds mismatches/

Yes, I do think something as common as the ubiqitous 4,3 cadence would have been expected: wether they thought merely indicating the root chord was sufficient and that players would themselves automatically play a 4,3 is moot; presumably for professional players not required, but for beginners
