The Bach Gounod Ave Maria is one of our favourite pieces of sacred music. This popular and much-recorded arrangement of the Latin prayer, Ave Maria was originally published in 1853 as Méditation sur le Premier Prélude de Piano de S. Bach and has been recorded by many of our favorite singers, including Pavarotti and Maria Callas. We hope you like it as much as we do!
