Extra Information | There are 4 parts, of which the text is on the first line; these lines are only labelled with "Canto", "Tenor", etc. But given the collection subtitle "contayning songs of 4. 5. and 6. parts, of severall sorts, and being verse and chorus, is fit for voyces and viols", it seems to be flexible enough that it could be done by 1, 2, or 3 voices with viol(s). However, this is also subject to correction if IMSLP gets an upload of the original collection and the actual parts indicate something different. |
