Understanding Discantus: The Latin Term for Separate Singing

Discantus is a Latin word that means "to sing apart" or "to sing separately". It is used in music to indicate that two or more voices or instruments should sing or play different parts of a piece separately, rather than together. This can create a sense of counterpoint or harmony between the different voices or instruments.
