Ave Maria was composed for the University of Kansas Choirs, and dedicated with appreciation to Simon Carrington (Kings Singers). It was premiered by the Oread Consort at Edington Priori Church in Wiltshire, England in May of 1997. The Gregg Smith Singers brought new life to this work at the 2000 Adirondack Festival of American Music in Saranac Lake, and followed with a recording on the Living Artist series. This piece was inspired by Gyorgy Ligeti's setting of Lux Aeterna (1966), as well as by Giuseppe Verdi's Ave Maria, the scala enigmatica armonizzata a Quattro voci (1898). It is shaped by a series of breath-like harmonic swells leading to climactic homophonic statements of the text, with strident voice pairings yearning for resolution. New York writer Watson Bosler describes the work as an iridescent wash of color as an intricate web of interrelated melodic and rhythmic themesThis Ave hymns not the sugar-water Virgin of Gounod or Scott, but rather the powerful Goddess Yeats depicts: The Roman Empire stood appalled:/ It dropped the reins of peace and war/ When that fierce virgin and her Star/ Out of the fabulous darkness called.

This setting for women's voices takes its simplicity from the text. This is a short carol, which repeats the text Ave Maria three times. The opening refrain is written homophonically with a predominant use of major seconds. The middle verse section is an unaccompanied soprano solo set in English. The final refrain incorporates a descant taken from the solo verse which brings all three voices together.

Ave Maria, gracia Dei plena; There is no rose; A Carol for Peace; Jesu for thy mercy endless are all push the envelope pieces (epecially the second), and for that reason are worth a look by composers who are interested in seeing some of the current outer limits for church and choral music. As for performance, they are for advanced church groups or college choirs only. Not for the timid! - Association of Anglican Musicians Journal.

Max Bruch's 'Ave Maria', Op.61 for Cello & Orchestra (composed/published in 1892) was based off an earlier motif presented in Bruch's dramatic cantata, 'Das Feuerkreuz', Op.52 (The Fiery Cross) for Soprano. The edition with Trombone Choir was produced for Dr. Aaron Tindall and the Ithaca College Trombone Troupe whom premiered it at the Northeast Regional Tuba & Euphonium Conference (NERTEC), hosted at Ithaca College in 2013.
