quintusn.

Brit.

/ˈkwɪntəs/, U.S.

/ˈkwɪn(t)əs/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin quīntus.

Etymology: < classical Latin quīntus (adjective) fifth (see quint n.¹), apparently after specific use in post-classical Latin (in e.g. quinta vox , as part name (1575 or earlier); compare quot. 2001).Use of post-classical Latin quintus (noun) in this sense has not been traced; compare however Quiuto (for Quinto) as part name (1597 in Morley).

Early Music.

A fifth vocal line in addition to the usual four in a vocal composition.

1968 New Oxf. Hist. Music IV. ii. 41 In such cases the middle voice (generally the quintus) was kept at work all the time as he had to do duty in both groups; the quintus is a tiresome problem for modern madrigal groups, as it can be solved only by a counter-tenor.

1977 Early Music 5 419/3 Those intending to sing through the motet volume should note that the quintus is not in the same vocal range throughout and six voices are needed.

2001 New Grove Dict. Music (Online ed.) at Part In the 16th century the names used in the commonest type of setting, in four parts, were ‘superius’, ‘altus’, ‘tenor’ and ‘bassus’... For compositions in five or six parts, the names ‘quinta vox’ (quintus) and ‘sexta vox’ (sextus) were used.
