Number of voices: {{{1}}}vv.   Voicing: [[:Category:{{{1st}}}|{{{1st}}}]][[Category:{{{1st}}}]]

Documentation

The purpose of this template is to provide for alternate/multiple (up to five) voicings on choral works pages, eg. pages for which there are, say, SSAA, SATB, and TTBB editions of a work.

Syntax examples:

Here is a rather comprehensive (albeit probably arcane) example:

{{MultiVoicing
|v=8
|v_add= plus 8 soli
|n=2
|1st=SAATTTBB
|var1st=TrMzCtCtTBarBarB
|2nd=SSAATTBB
|var2nd=SSMzATTBarB
|2nd_add=, both with soli in each part
|9=Maria salvatoris Mater, O}}

This produces:

Number of voices: 8vv plus 8 soli.   Voicings: TrMzCtCtTBarBarB and SSMzATTBarB, both with soli in each part.

The work is categorized in SAATTTBB and in SSAATTBB, both with sortkey "Maria salvatoris Mater, O".

This example shows how Template:MultiVoicing can emulate Template:Voicing:

{{MultiVoicing|4|1st=SATB|var1st=SATB ''divisi''|9=Haven, The}}

produces

Number of voices: 4vv.   Voicing: SATB divisi

and categorizes the page in SATB with sortkey="Haven, The"

This construct is completely equivalent to

{{Voicing|4|SATB|SATB ''divisi''|9=The Haven}}
