It has been transposed down a minor third to the likely and more practical performing pitch, placing the parts in the classic Tudor ranges: Treble, Mean, Contratenor, Tenor and Bassus. Edition prepared for Ensemble Pro Victoria's series of Tudor music concerts in Trinity College Chapel, Cambridge in May 2017.
