Weepe O mine eyes

For any theory or choral nerds out there, I would really appreciate anyone looking over this piece looking for parallel 5th's, 8va's, etc. or incorrect dissonance treatment. I've wracked my brains enough on it, and I know I'm missing something. Thanks for any help or comments!

Nice work , Blaire.  Here are the possible problems I saw.

m8-  harmonically sop and bass c to e.  Not sure if the passing tones negate the parallel movement. this may or may not be.

m28-  alto and bass

m29 into 30-  alto bass

m31 into 32- again alto bass.  This may be another passing tone situation.

My only other observation is regarding our time signature.  You've notated cut time, could it be 4/2 instead?

Again, very nice work.  Hope this helps.

@tmarko Thank you so much! The 4/2 markd 2/2 is just for some reason common in Renaissance style. Even Brahms uses it in his Requiem (3rd movement). I think it's because the longa is being split in two, as opposed to the breve.

Is it right C# in alto and C natural in tenor (measure 6) ?

Yeah, it's a spicy little cross relation. 🙂 

OK it sounds fine.
