[a] A tramezzo spanned the piers that divided the easternmost bay of the nave from the central one. Its wall provided shelter and privacy for a choir on its eastern side in which clergy could have an uninterrupted view of the high altar. The choir likely had side walls abutting the eastern faces of the nave piers. It remains unclear why a parish church would have a choir, but San Remigio had been under the patronage of the Benedictine nuns of San Pier Maggiore from about 1066 until 1267 and perhaps the tradition of a choir was continued into the new complex begun when the patronage passed to the Bagnesi family. The presence of a cloister to the south of the church indicates a residential community, which also would have required a choir.
