WHAT DOES VERSET MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Alternatim

Alternatim refers to a technique of liturgical musical performance, especially in relationship to the Organ Mass. A specific part of the ordinary of the Mass would be divided into versets. Each verset would be performed antiphonally by two groups of singers, giving rise to polyphonic settings of half of the text. One of these groups may alternatively have consisted of a soloist, a group of instruments, or an organ. The missing even- or odd-numbered verses were supplied by plainchant or, perhaps more commonly, by improvisations on the organ. A large amount of musical repertoire was specifically written for alternatim performance, with Heinrich Isaac and Charles Justin as notable composers. Alternatim performance of the Mass was common throughout Europe in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. The Catholic church banned the practice in 1903 by Pope Pius X in Motu proprio. The practice did, however, inform the works of Olivier Messiaen who wrote pseudo-versets for his many liturgical organ works, especially his Messe de la Pentecôte.
