'''Description:''' Busnois, credited with stretching the typical vocal range of singers, employs large ranges in the inner voices (A,T) not typical of modern mixed choirs. For practical performance purposes, one may utilize a mix of altos, counter-tenors and tenors (as applicable) for these inner parts, or altos and tenors can switch parts for certain passages.
