Ranges for the soloists are not difficult, with the exception of Joseph’s tenor part in No. 12 “Look on Me This Day—Duet.” Choruses range from unison (all voices singing the melody) to 12 parts. The letters in the table indicate the choral parts for each piece: S=soprano, A=alto, T=tenor, and B=bass. The repetition of letters indicates additional separate voices for that part: SS=2 soprano parts. For instance, SATB=soprano, alto, tenor, and bass parts, while SSSAAATTTBBB=3 soprano parts, 3 alto parts, 3 tenor parts, and 3 bass parts.
