- Edition notes: Original pitch, note values have been halved. Mensural barlines, original pitch and clef given in incipits at the start of each section. Editorial accidentals are placed above staff. For convenience of performance, the Liber Usualis chants (for both tone 1 and tone 6) are included between the even verses, their inclusion does not imply any authenticity in connection with the polyphonic magnificats.
