Ave Maria

Ave Maria is a Catholic prayer that consequently asks for the mother of Jesus (Mary) to intercede. Charles Gounod composed a famous version of the Ave Maria. He was a French Romantic composer who overlaid a new melody on an existing Bach chord progression. The progression is from Bachs Prelude No. 1 from Well-Tempered Clavier I. This version, as well as Schuberts version, have become essential items at weddings, masses, and funerals.
