Gaetano
Lorandi's eight-part 'Ave
verum' for mixed a
cappella choir was
awarded a prize by the
jury of the International
Federation of Choral
Music in 2013 for its
high repertoire value and
its great elaborateness.
Based on the Latin prayer
'Ave verum' from the 14th
century, this sacred a
cappella choral work
captures the special
atmosphere of the mystery
of the Eucharist in a
musically impressive way.
Characterized by dense
chromaticism and
successive changes of
time and dynamics, it is
based on a sophisticated
handling of the text and
a subtle musical
language. Thus, the work
is a demanding addition
to existing Ave verum
settings, both with
regard to the music and
to the performance
practice.
