Lyricist:
Number of voices: 4-5vv   Voicing: SAABar

Description: For this mass Le Heurteur used the anonymous motet "Impetum inimicorum" as a model, which was printed by Attaignant in 1528. The motet is also on CPDL. The two middle parts are low alto-parts or extremely high tenor parts. Transposing down is an option: the bottom G in the bass occurs only twice: once in the Kyrie and once in the Agnus Dei. The final Agnus Dei has an extra alto/tenor part.
