Ave verum. 2 sopranos (soprano/alto) and organ.

No, it is not only Mozart when hearing the Ave verum : Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921), too, set this text to music several times - for example, for organ (without pedal) and two identical voices. The organ may even be replaced by a piano, the vocal parts can be sung by two sopranos, soprano and mezzo-soprano, or soprano and alto. If the performers are good, one may even consider a performance of this sacred composition in groups.
Now available in an attractiv single edition, this setting is valuable addition to the repertoire and impressive alternative to the common Ave settings. Instrumentation : 2 sopranos (soprano/alto) and organ
