Edition notes: In the SATTB version, the piece has been transposed to better fit modern, mixed ensembles. The score order of the two tenor parts has been reversed because of tessitura issues. Exchanges have also been made between the alto and tenor parts because of range; these are detailed in included editorial notes. The original ATTBB version is also available. Includes a keyboard reduction of the a cappella choral score.
