I'm a highschooler who got lucky enough to sing tenor 1 on this song. I've tried all of the parts of the song, and I'm obsessed. Every time I hear this song, I get chills down my back. Its heavenly, and I don't think any words other than divine could describe it.
This song has so much meaning to me. I sang tenor in high school to this song. That was many years ago. To hear this now brings tears to my eyes. There's so much meaning. I hope that anyone listening feels even a little of what I feel when I hear this. So beautiful.
Finally, just pure music; no vibrato ! -- As if one dying of thirst, crawling past one warm muddy pool after another, .. .. now finally, finally, a spring flowing clear, cool, & deep !
I've sung this with the Fordham University Concert Choir & the 8 part harmony (male & female voices) is absolutely stunning. It's also longer. I'm a little disappointed they didn't do the other verses before moving into the "Santa Maria." Such gorgeous voices- would have loved more.
I sang an all-male version of this in college, Portland State University, and it gave me chills then, and it does now. Then, years later, many of us guys came back together to sing it for one of our fellow chorister's wedding. It was magical! I agree that I am sad this amazing group didn't perform the entire piece.
The piece holds a special place in my heart as one of the most challenging and satisfying I’ve ever had the pleasure of performing. It is sublime. Thank you for sharing this. We all need a little more beauty and peace in the world right now. Your contribution continues to be noticed.
Very true it's very special but super difficult to perform I did with my high level high school choir in key west Florida. I remember that moment like it was yesterday.
I'm in the sun on a 75⁰ day and my whole body has chills. The word "beautiful" should be reserved for something like this. The intonation is unreal. Oh, wow.
I'm from South Africa and sang this 24 years ago in the St Karl Kirche in Vienna on our European tour. This is absolutely breathtaking and bringing back so many, many beautiful memories!
I sang this song a few years ago with my choir and I fell in love with this song. It’s so beautiful, I’d want to sing it again. This is a really beautiful cover too! thankyou for this, i’ve been missing this song
I fully agree! My daughter wants to do this before she leaves her church in Estes Park! Our Cathedral of the Assumption choir in Louisville, KY should do it!
Idem en anglais : Sing together with as much complicity, gentleness and accuracy this magnificent composition of Biebl ... what others ask! Congratulations to you.
Absolutely exquisite singing of a magnificent choral work! One of my favorites I have sung in one of our community choirs to which I belong. Thank you VOCES8. Incredible!!

As Blake has doubtless mentioned, this work long ago became sort of Chanticleer's "alma mater", and they performed it at nearly every concert, and once had the honor of performing it before Franz Biebl himself. But I must confess, I actually prefer your rendition! The sopranos are absolutely ethereal!
That Amen at the end *chef's kiss* My biggest criticism when ensemble's perform this tends to be that the stay a tempo all the way through with no pauses, which can make it feel like they're actually rushing because of how drawn out the Amen's are. VOCES8 perfectly interprets that it needs to be savored. The exhalation is exaltation, a firm affirmation. "So be it" (You don'y have to be religious to get it though)
Yup, my church had this music so beautiful. Now they won’t let us sing because of COVID. I remember singing in the choir it’s such a beautiful song. I’m afraid traditional things like this are going extinct.

Agree 100%
Ditto. I've sung this several times (2nd Bass) and I get goose pimples every time I hear it.
One of the most sublime pieces in the Western repertoire, sung by one of the best ensembles today.
Ave Maria! May Our Blessed Mother Mary, Queen of Heaven touch the heart of every soul listening 🌹🙏🏼
This song has so much meaning to me. I sang tenor in high school to this song. That was many years ago. To hear this now brings tears to my eyes. There's so much meaning. I hope that anyone listening feels even a little of what I feel when I hear this. So beautiful.
The girl in the center got very little screen time and shes the angelic voice that sends this praise straight to God.
I feel compelled to admit, the sheer elegance of this piece brought the sting of tears to my eyes. So delicate and yet so solid.
Same here. This is why I love music.
It. Is. SO. In. Tune.
Until I heard this I didn’t know that you could be more or less in tune. This is more.
this is how I wish to offer our lady daily 153 roses BEST ave maria I've ever heard Thank you so much
That "Amen" part gets me everytime.
DUDE THE HIGH B HARMONIC AT THE END SENT ME OH MY GOODNESS this is amazing
After hearing this, I'm absolutely convinced that Heaven exists. It's impossible for this music to come from other place than that.
Listening to this once again on the Solemnity of the Annunciation. “Et Verbum caro factum est, et habitavit in nobis.”
Man, I wish you guys did the longer version. The build up was my favorite part about this song
Finally, just pure music; no vibrato ! -- As if one dying of thirst, crawling past one warm muddy pool after another, .. .. now finally, finally, a spring flowing clear, cool, & deep !
I sang this with my middle school chamber and even 5 years later, it remains one of my very favorite pieces. Beautifully done!
I've sung this with the Fordham University Concert Choir & the 8 part harmony (male & female voices) is absolutely stunning. It's also longer. I'm a little disappointed they didn't do the other verses before moving into the "Santa Maria." Such gorgeous voices- would have loved more.

totally agree. One more, or even two more verses... :D

I'm in the sun on a 75⁰ day and my whole body has chills. The word "beautiful" should be reserved for something like this. The intonation is unreal. Oh, wow.
This is the best version of this piece I’ve heard!!
This must be what Heaven sounds like!
The overtones on the last chord are angelic!!! I have been looking for this version of Ave Maria since I sang it in High school in 1995! Thank you!
Thank you for this recording

Chanter ensemble avec autant de complicité, de douceur et de justesse cette magnifique composition de Biebl....que demander d'autres ! Bravo à vous.
This must be the music God listens to!! Utterly sublime!
A wonderful performance.

Esplêndido
I love when this song comes up on Pandora.
Oh my gosh
That Amen at the end *chef's kiss*
My biggest criticism when ensemble's perform this tends to be that the stay a tempo all the way through with no pauses, which can make it feel like they're actually rushing because of how drawn out the Amen's are. VOCES8 perfectly interprets that it needs to be savored. The exhalation is exaltation, a firm affirmation. "So be it" (You don'y have to be religious to get it though)
what the....... im crying hear this
I'm not crying, you are crying
😭♥️
Bring it to Heaven
We want :“MISERERE MEI”
I wish there were a church within driving distance of me that had this kind of music.
Yup, my church had this music so beautiful. Now they won’t let us sing because of COVID. I remember singing in the choir it’s such a beautiful song. I’m afraid traditional things like this are going extinct.
makes me crying. wonderfull voice. btw..let me know this lyric please,, the meaning of this song
It’s the Catholic prayer, “Hail Mary,” in Latin.
I can’t feel but overwhelmed by the sheer beauty of this piece and the beauty conveyed by these magnificent musicians.
For the record, this was composed around the same time as Shostakovich's 11th.
Sehr anspruchsvoll, perfekt gesungen!
Try this one:
I also listen to this song from others, but it was a little bit different. Is this song origin from Voces 8?
Powyższe godne jest, Requiem, Op. 9: IX. In Paradisum, Maurice Duruflé. Gratuluję od serca.
we were going to sing this beautiful song this year in my highschool choir but our director left right before the concert 😔
Oh man. So sorry about that 🥺❤️
Is Katie no longer with the group or did she simply have a substitute due to illness or schedule conflicts?
This is actually an older recording! I believe this was made before Katie joined the group.
Fucking hell. This is incredible amazing. Beautiful voices, beautiful human beings, and one of my favourites "Ave Maria". Thanks guys.

Tell something about the composers when they are less familiar than the household names.
I’m converting to Catholicism right now!
I used to admire this piece, but it now seems to me like funky barbershop quartet repertoire.
Trust me this is noooooot barbershop far from it.
