(Sorry if the following sounds like an advertisement... I'm not
selling nor do I benefit... I just really like this site.)
****************
I've been lately looking through a site called magnatune which has a
couple hundred albums for *full* preview. (entire album/songs, not
just snippets)
under
http://magnatune.com/collections/medieval
http://magnatune.com/collections/renaissance
http://magnatune.com/collections/baroque
there are several albums which have dance music.
I havn't listened to them enough to determine how many are suitable,
and a couple are for styles with which i am unfamiliar.

#11 is a reasonable Salterello La Regina
Check it out... if folks find something that would be good for dance,
pass it along!
OT: they have a pretty good world section in general... with a heavy
middle eastern influence. There is a neat version of ma navu, but it's
not danceable as recorded.
N.B. of late, the stream has been a bit choppy... make sure you use
something that can buffer a bit ahead if you don't want the frustration
of getting into the groove and having the song cut in and out.
