Description

SATB Choir. Early Renaissance, in Latin. If you have a choir that wants to go to the trouble to tackle this, they will absolutely love it! After all, this is the composer who Martin Luther said was the "master of the notes." Also perfect for the Feast of the Annunciation. Gabriel's chant melody (Ave Maria) in each voice adds something special! One of those gems that makes singing a joy.

Lyrics

The angel Gabriel was sent to the Virgin Mary, announcing to her the message:
“Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you; you are blessed among women.” Alleluia.
