Ascending Major Sixths in Chant?
-
Descending major sixths are found in the introit for the first Sunday of Advent and the alleluia for January 1. Credo III has an ascending minor sixth. Are there any examples of ascending major sixths in the chant repertory?
-
Have you checked the responsories of Tenebrae, I think there may be some there but my mind is all on Victorias versions right now.
