Saint-Saens – Ave Maria in A Major

Saint-Saens

“Ave Maria” in A major is part of his larger work, the “Six Duets for Two Voices and Organ,” Op. 10. This collection includes settings of various sacred texts, and the “Ave Maria” in A major is one of the pieces within this set.

These duets were composed in 1858 and showcase Saint-Saëns’s mastery of choral writing and his ability to blend voices with the organ. The “Ave Maria” is likely to be a beautiful and lyrical setting of the traditional Latin prayer.
