Ajoutée par magataganm, 02 Mar 2015 Charles-Camille Saint-Saëns (1835–1921) was a French composer, organist, conductor and pianist of the Romantic era. His best-known works include Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso (1863), the Second Piano Concerto (1868), the First Cello Concerto (1872), Danse macabre (1874), the opera Samson and Delilah (1877), the Third Violin Concerto (1880) the Third ("Organ") Symphony (1886) and The Carnival of the Animals (1887). It is not only Bach/Gounod when hearing the Ave Maria: Saint-Saëns, too, set this text to music several times - for example, for organ (without pedal) and two identical voices. The organ is sometimes replaced replaced by a piano (and here, the Harp), the vocal parts can be sung by two sopranos, soprano and mezzo-soprano, or soprano and alto. If the performers are good, one may even consider a performance of this sacred composition in groups. This setting is valuable addition to the repertoire and impressive alternative to the common Ave Maria settings. I created this arrangement of his "Ave Maria - Come, Blessed Savior" for Violin, Viola & Concert (Pedal) Harp. |
