Over the course of time, many composers have honoured the mother of Jesus with a musical Ave Maria (a Hail Mary). One of the most well-known is that of the French composer Charles François Gounod (1818-1893), who added a melody to the first prelude from Das Wohltemperierte Klavier by the German master-composer Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). The result is a long, lyrical melody line with a wonderfully built-up curve of tension, floating above a softly sparkling accompaniment. Lorenzo Bocci has arranged the Ave Maria by Bach/Gounod for clarinet ensemble.

Veel componisten hebben in de loop der tijden de moeder van Jezus geëerd met een muzikaal Ave Maria (een Weesgegroet). Een van de bekendste is dat van de Franse componist Charles François Gounod (1818-1893), die de melodie toevoegdeaan de eerste prelude uit Das wohltemperierte Klavier van de Duitse meestercomponist Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). Het resultaat is een lange, lyrische melodielijn met een prachtig opgebouwde spanningsboog over eenzacht sprankelende basis. Lorenzo Bocci bewerkte het Ave Maria van Bach/Gounod voor klarinetensemble.

Das Ave Maria ist von Komponisten aller Epochen vertont worden. Eine der berühmtesten Vertonungen stammt von Charles Gounod. Dieser legte seine Melodie über die Musik zum 1. Präludium aus dem Wohltemperierten Klavier von Johann Sebastian Bach, weshalb das Werk als Ave Maria von Bach-Gounod in die Musikgeschichte einging. Lorenzo Bocci bearbeitete die schöne Musik für Klarinettenquartett.

Nombreux sont les compositeurs qui ont au fil du temps glorifié la mère de Jésus en mettant en musique un Ave Maria (Je vous salue, Marie). L’un des plus célèbres est celui du compositeur français Charles-François Gounod (1818-1893) qui a composé une Méditation sur le premier prélude extrait du Clavier bien Tempéré (Das wohltemperierte Klavier) du maître allemand Jean-Sébastien Bach (1685-1750).

L’Ave Maria è stata scritta da compositori di tutte le epoche. Una delle più famose è senza dubbio quella di Charles Gounod che sovrappose la sua melodia alla musica del primo preludio da il Clavicembalo Ben Temperato di Johann Sebastian Bach. Per questa ragione il brano entrò nella storia della musica come Ave Maria di Bach-Gounod. L’arrangiamento per quartetto di clarinetti è firmato Lorenzo Bocci.
