Ave Maria

for Piano Trio or String Quartet

Charles Gounod’s “Ave Maria” is a well-known piece of classical music that combines the beauty of a traditional Catholic prayer with a timeless melody. This brilliant setting makes for a perfect addition to your Christmas Carol Sheet Music collection.

Gounod ingeniously layered his own melody over Johann Sebastian Bach’s Prelude No. 1 in C major from The Well-Tempered Clavier.

This unique blend of old and new has made Gounod’s “Ave Maria” a popular choice for weddings, funerals, and other solemn occasions. The piece’s serene and contemplative nature, combined with its beautiful melody, has captivated audiences for generations.
