    In this Marian month of May and as Mothers Day is this Sunday, here is my Ave Maria a 6 for SMzATBarB voices, which is, in fact, a contrafactum of my Ave verum corpus. Happy Mothers Day, and may Mary pray for us all, even as we pray in these difficult times.

    With the current suppression of live choral singing, feel free to sing along with the scrolling score video (for better viewing, click on YouTube, near the bottom right, once the video begins). Score may also be downloaded from CPDL.

    Can I do this for Assumption with 6 singers properly spaced? I love it.
