I have some questions concerning this piece.

Measures 7 and 10 are identical except for the F sharp in bar 7. Should they not be the same? The F natural in bar 10 breaks the row of perfect fourths.
 
:it should be F# - no matter how modal plainchant is, the <i>diabolus in musica</i> is definitely out. [[User:Jkelecom|joachim]]
 
In bar 12, which otherwise corresponds to bar 9 and 30, there are some perfect fifths. Is that correct?
 
:I don't see any fifths in bar 12, I'm afraid. [[User:Jkelecom|joachim]]
 
Finally, are measures 19-27 and 31-40 meant to be sung by the women only?

== Male/Female voicing category? ==
 
I have the impression that CPDL is missing a category for 2-part works divided between female and male voices. How to classify such works? —[[User:Carlos|Carlos]]&nbsp;[{{carlos}} {{mail}}] 20:27, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

:Couldn't you just put ST as voicing?  Or SB, for that matter? Since the source file is available, it's relatively easy to transpose the piece if one finds the tessitura uncomfortable for one's choir.  Besides, pitch doesn't really matter in plainchant anyway.
