Edition notes: Transposed a tone higher, 'Altus' parts in treble clef, otherwise identical to CPDL #65661. This is probably the optimal pitch for modern voices — performers who prefer to read a ‘flat’ key signature for 16th-century polyphony may prefer to use either the original-pitch (CPDL #65661 below) or minor-third-higher (CPDL #65664 above) editions and adjust performance pitch accordingly.
