Gounod - Ave Maria

Sheet music for violin

Info: Ave Maria is a popular piece, originally published as Méditation sur le Premier Prélude de Piano de S. Bach. The piece consists of a melody by the French Romantic composer Charles Gounod especially designed to be superimposed over the Prelude No. 1 in C major, BWV 846, from Book I of J.S. Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier, written 137 years earlier.
Date: 1853
Artist: Charles-François Gounod
Born: 17 June 1818, Paris
Died: 18 October 1893, Saint-Cloud
The artist: Gounod had a particularly strong influence on French composers from the middle of the 19th century. He achieved considerable success in the theatre with operas, but the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and a period spent in England brought a largely unprofitable interruption.
