Ave Maria - Bach / Gounod

[Elena]

Hi everyone.

I have just added a forth version of Ave Maria to my list of songs. This version is Ave Maria by Bach/Gounod which consists of a melody by the French Romantic composer Charles Gounod especially designed to be superimposed over the Prelude No. 1 in C major, BWV 846, from Book I of J.S. Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier, written some 137 years earlier.

We were in Macon Georgia for the Sakura Cheri blossom festival last April and got this great cathedral footage for this film.

I hope you like it.

Elena,
How do you construct or acquire your backing track?
Lovely singing as usual. Nice to hear a different melody - thanks for that.
Regarding the visuals - on this one you've relied too heavily on symmetry.

For the backing tracks, I search for the one I like the most on iTunes and get it from there or Amazon.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by "relied too heavily on symmetry". Was I in the center too much? Mom makes the videos. This one was all greenscreen and maybe that's why. I'll tell her.

Thanks you.
