Ave Maria a 3 by Charles H. Giffen — Lyrics
About Ave Maria a 3
This setting of the Ave Maria for three-part choir is ideal for services throughout the Marian year, especially in Advent and at feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Charles H. Giffen’s music reflects the devotional character of the Latin text, which addresses the Virgin with the words of the angel Gabriel and the Church. The composer offers this devotional text in a flexible scoring suitable for SAB, SSA, or TTB ensembles, making it accessible to a wide range of choirs. The motet’s clear, devotional lines will resonate with both singers and listeners, providing a moment of contemplative beauty within a liturgical setting.
