In addition to the canonic complexities, Josquin adds variety by beginning the L'homme armé tune on a successively higher note in each section (and also in the third Agnus Dei), one for each of the six notes in the natural hexachord (thus the title, "voces musicales", or solmization syllables, ut, re, mi, fa, sol, la).
In addition to the canonical intricacies, Josquin introduces diversity by initiating the L'homme armé melody on a progressively higher note in each section (and also in the third Agnus Dei). Each of these notes corresponds to one of the six natural hexachord tones (thus the title "voces musicales," or solmization syllables, ut, re, mi, fa, sol, la).
