The maximum number of independent voices that can sing "Sumer is icumen in" is six. This medieval English round, also known as a rota, features a complex polyphonic structure where each voice enters at different times, creating a rich tapestry of sound. The voices typically include a cantus (melody), tenor, and several other parts that harmonize with the main theme.
