Schubert composed his Ave Maria in 1825, originally for voice and piano. In 1885, the German violinist August Wilhelmj adapted it as a showpiece for violin and piano. In 2000, the Terre Haute Symphony Orchestra commissioned Daniel Powers to orchestrate Wilhelmj's arrangement for solo violin, strings, and harp.
Version 3 of his orchestration omits the solo violin, moving the melody line into the first violins, sometimes supported by cellos or second violins. The harp and organ parts are the same as version 2 (as are the optional winds to replace the organ if necessary).
