Talk:Petite camusette (Josquin des Prez)

The parts for 'Petite camusette' are given as: Superius, Quinta Pars, Contratenor, Tenor, Sexta Pars, Bassus (from highest to lowest voices) in my edition (original pitch), and in performance the top two parts, which have the same ambitus (range), have always been assigned to two sopranos, neither part ever being taken by altos. Therefore I'm changing the voicing to SSTTBB. Incidentally, the Contratenor is in strict unison canon with the Tenor part, offset by 1 measure. ChuckGiffen 11:17 CST, 12 January 2006

SATB or STTB for old music...

general question... If you contribute a 4voiced piece from the XVI C which has Superius, Contratenor, Tenor and Bassus.. should it be SATB or STTB ?? IN the last case I have to modify / adapt / my contributions....--Wursten 12:13, 12 January 2006 (PST)
