Ave Maria - Robert Parsons

I've sung and heard many Ave Maria's in my time as a member of the Toronto Oratory Choir, Sacred Music Society, and the award-winning Victoria Scholars. If there is a more sublime setting of the Ave Maria, I do not know it. Schubert? Bach- Gounod? They can't touch this. Victoria? Yes, comes close, but this is by far, the best!

A blessed Feast of the Assumption to all.

Most Blessed Mary, ever-virgin, intercede for this writer and his readers. Amen.

The Holy Catholic Tridentine Mass celebrated by Fr. Gommar A. de Pauw - one of the very first to smell a rat at vatican ii.

Amen, Vox, and this is lovely. Lovely to hear and lovely to realize that somewhere in our ugly world worship and beauty and culture are still going on.
