“Il est bel et bon” is a very characteristic piece of Parisian polyphonic song from the 16th century: contrapuntal treatment, text-music relationship, style... The sheet is presented on two staves: the soprano part in treble clef and the tenor part in treble clef octava bassa. This presentation makes it easy to observe the arrangement of the imitations. The song is in the mode of D, the C sharp as a sensitive note being indicated only as an option during the cadences. (automatic translation)
