There are sometimes parts that represent the middle-range men and women, mezzo-sopranos and baritones, but these are usually soloists. The individual parts are often split into more sections (eg. first soprano, second soprano etc.), and multiple choirs may be used. Thomas Tallis, for example, used forty individual parts in his 'Spem In Alium', and two choirs are used in Bach's 'St. Matthew's Passion'. Further typrs of voices are found in opera, for example the Queen of Night in Mozart's 'The Magic Flute', a coloratura soprano.
