Dancing and singing at the same time is rare today. However, written records reveal that dance songs have been an integral part of musical culture for as long as musical practices have been documented. The years around 1600 saw the heyday of texted dance tunes. And among the extant sources, the sung galliard is the most prominent dance.

The moresca is a widespread dance and term in the Renaissance. However, what is referred to as “moresca” in the various regions and contexts is so heterogeneous that it defies a standardised definition. It is precisely because of these characteristics that the moresca is interesting for an examination within the framework of historically informed musical practice. The aim is to find a way of dealing with gaps in knowledge, problematic terms and cultural attributions and, not least, with polyvalences.
