Introducing Gounod's beloved Ave Maria, based on a prelude from J. S. Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier, in an accessible choral arrangement. The melody passes through all voices, while well-written choral parts provide support. An excellent way to introduce not one, but two master composers!

Michael writes, adapts, and arranges music that always catches the eyes and ears of music directors. Choral accessibility and musical care are foremost in his mind as he writes. Michael's setting of this cherished prayer is one of his best to date. The accompaniment is reminiscent of the well-known Bach/Gounod setting as the arpeggio figures accompany the vocal line and choral harmonies. Within the choral texture are some unusual but pleasing harmonic shifts to keep singer and listener engaged. If you know any of Michael's earlier works, you will surely want this one in your library.
