    in two keys... C minor (because that is what I could demo) and E minor.

    (please forgive my failing voice on the demo... may it at least be a prayer to our dearest Mother)

    Note in the score: This piece was misattributed to Caccini in 1970 when it was first performed and then discovered to have been composed by Vavilov. The entire text of the Ave Maria was not inlcuded in the original work, only the initial phrase, "Ave Maria". It was my intention to set the entire text of the prayer, incorporate more counterpoint and refine the work. The melody and chord structure are borrowed as the remainder is newly conceived.

    If anyone wants this in any other key, just shout... I can also include a two, three or four part choral arrangement when time allows.
