I worded it badly and made it look like I really want to do these.
More that I want Italian that local people will like to dance, so
"more complicated" is a negative, as is "not as attractive".

[checking http://www.cynnabar.org/terpsichore/index.php?page=class ]
You're referring to "Beginning 15th C. Italian" from Lady Magdalena
Vogelsang, the lady who does the lovely subtlety each year: "Petit
Rose (3), Petit Vriens (1), Amoroso (4), and others as time permits".

(By the way, a lovely notion that the class coordinator had: "(3)" and
"(1)" and such say which set of the ball the dance will be done, if
any.)

No, I'm referring to "Two 15th Century Balli for Three" from HL Dafydd
Arth: "Spero (2), Belfiore".

The Two Cascarde, from Mistress Alina, were "Alta Regina (2) is
lovely, and fairly low impact for a Cascarda. Fedelta (3), a cute
Cascarda for a circle of as many couples as will, has the joyous feel
of a country dance."

I see I forgot a 3 PM class from friar Guillaume di San Marino:
"Candida Luna (1) is a Cascarda for beginners".
