  • This very unusual piece is centered on the 6-note start of the famous chanson Fortuna Desperata, played as a cantus firmus by the tenor, and cycles through the circle of fifths, starting in F major in the first part, and ending up in F-flat major in the second.
  • RISM lists it as for 4 voices. Tagged as such.
