Ave Verum Corpus

This masterwork has been adapted for singing groups containing changing voices. �An attempt has been made to maintain the authenticity of the work with only enough changes to conform to the range and tessitura limitations of early adolescent singers. �The arrangement also may be sung by high school, college, and adult choirs who have an abundance of women and just a few men. �There are three parts written in the treble clef and one in the bass clef. �The men's part is a nice compromise between the tenor and bass ranges. �Choir directors will find that better balance may be achieved than that which occurs when treble-heavy groups attempt to sing SATB voicing.
