    Cool Ave Maria - Frans Schubert

    Well not my composition but still me performing (and my video) - not just on organ though.

    What do you think? Is it ok?

    + YouTube Video

    Very nice. Great job. I am really so impressed, well done, well played.
    I adore this track anyway "Ave Maria".. Lately I found an interesting version performed by celtic woman: http://www.tune4now.com/video.php?link=SsTJU27a1uc

    Thank you alexiakl.

    Yup, that "Ave Maria" you send link to is by Bach and Gounod. Gounod wrote the melody over the famous 1st prelude in The Well-Tempered Clavier by Bach.
    That version is nice but not the best I have heard though.

    Hi Falcon1,

    The Ave Maria was splendid ... wonderful sound quality so unlike the normal youtube offerings we normally get exposed to. Video nicely done, too ... like the fade to dark at the end of the piece.

    Greeting Falcon1,

    That was supremely pleasant to listen to and brought me back to my childhood. I seem to enjoy all of the Ave Maria's, not matter the version.

    i will add my kitsch-jazz-funk touch: the "ave maria" by Eumir Deodato, the CTI big-seller. and since i'm on it, there's also his version of "pavane for a dead princess"
