Ave Maria is a popular and much-recorded setting of the Latin prayer Ave Maria, originally published in 1853 as Méditation sur le Premier Prélude de Piano de S. Bach. The piece consists of a melody by the French Romantic composer Charles Gounod that he superimposed over an only very slightly changed version of the Prelude No. 1 in C major, BWV 846, from Book I of J. S. Bach’s The Well-Tempered Clavier, published in 1722.
== Composition ==
Gounod improvised the melody, and his future father-in-law Pierre-Joseph-Guillaume Zimmermann transcribed the improvisation and in 1853 made an arrangement for violin (or cello) with piano and harmonium. The same year it appeared with the words of Alphonse de Lamartine’s poem Le livre de la vie (“The Book of Life”). In 1859, Jacques-Léopold Heugel published a version with the familiar Latin text. The version of Bach’s prelude used by Gounod includes the “Schwencke measure” (m.23), a measure allegedly added by Christian Friedrich Gottlieb Schwencke in an attempt to correct what he or someone else erroneously deemed a “faulty” progression, even though this sort of progression was standard in Bach’s music.Alongside Schubert’s Ave Maria, the Bach/Gounod Ave Maria has become a fixture at funerals, wedding Masses, and quinceañeras.
