Hi folks, question: I've asked for the big Barenreiter collection of Aves, etc., from my brother for Xmas. Alas, I need the Alain Ave Maria setting for a concert before then (12/22). Is there anyone who would be willing to help me with a copy? It's not available for e-download anywhere I've found through licit (or other) means. I'm not opposed to paying if someone can find me a link, but I'd want it as a print out. Thanks for your help: if it is the F major setting, that would most helpful, too, although if D is what you have, I'll not be picky! :)
I have a version, d minor as I recall- top note is A. I will try to send a scanned copy to you today. The Alain is beautiful, serene. People and the priests like it so much at the parish that it seems to be phasing out the Schubert for funerals.
