Ave Maria and Other Great Sacred Solos - Rollin Smith

The most popular religious songs of the past 250 years appear in this collection, a treasury of sacred songs known and loved by singers and listeners at home, in church, and in concert.
Two versions of Ave Maria are featured: Schubert's moving 1825 version, originally written as part of a setting of songs from Sir Walter Scott's Lady of the Lake, and the interpretation by Charles Gounod based on Bach's prelude from The Well-Tempered Clavier. Other contents include O Holy Night, Kol Nidre, Faur's Pie Jesu (from his Requiem), Franck's Panis Anglicus, Mozart's Ave Verum Corpos, Sullivan's The Lost Chord, and many other favorites.
Attractive keyboard accompaniment is provided for either organ manuals or piano.
