Presumably the famous (and very good) Spem in alium nunquam habui of

Without revealing too much, I'm thinking in of breaking the band into 8
choirs with semi-antiphonal seating around the stage and front of the
hall as well as a good deal of pitched percussion (including handbells)
to vary the sound of each choir. Like I said, I'm planning but have no
group to

I'm guessing, Spem in alium nunquam habui, by Thomas Tallis, written
for eight 5-part antiphonal choirs? I played a brass version of this
when I was in university.

Recently a bigger motet was discovered, I believe for 60 parts, it was
miscatalogued in the French National Library.
A fascinating article in Early Music America detailed the

Thanks
