Publisher Desc.  In this ethereal a cappella setting of a Christocentric Latin prayer, slow and staggered repetitions of "ave" create a billow of sound with gradual harmonic shifts as the main theme emerges from a solo SATB-quartet or semichorus, preferably spaced apart from the main choir. Careful attention to dynamic markings will help to bring out the melodic interplay between the two vocal forces. An exquisite work for advanced choirs.
