The French Romantic composer Charles Gounod added a beautiful melody to the Prelude in C by Baroque master Johann Sebastian Bach, to create this beloved and inspiring Ave Maria.

This pedal harp solo arranged by Stephanie Bennett (ASCAP) has been meticulously notated with fingerings, as well as tempo and dynamics markings.

Great for any classical-music setting, & for any Christian occasion (weddings, funerals, christenings, Christmas, etc.)

If you print it out on paper, remember that the ODD numbered pages go on your LEFT and the EVEN numbered pages go on your right. Laid out this way, there will be only one easy page turn (from page 3 to page 4).

If you take the repeat, it?s about 4 minutes long. If you skip the repeat (go directly to 2nd ending), it?s about 2 minutes & 15 seconds.
