Why is it feminine?

Partitura is feminine because it derives from the Latin "partita" (feminine past participle of "partire," meaning "divided" or "distributed"), which retained its feminine gender when adopted into Spanish; the -a ending also reinforces feminine gender in Romance languages. The word refers to a musical score as something "divided" into separate instrumental or vocal parts.
