[punchdrunque]

Thanx for the upload :o) Best to you and yours. Now, about the quality ... what is there to say, that as yet, has not been said :o)

@saber41322 El nombre verdadero de la canción no es 'Ave Maria', es 'Ellens Gesang II' que significa 'la tercera canción de Ellen. La melodía de Schubert fue utilizada para la oración catolica Ave Maria, pero Schubert nunca la dedicó a la Virgen María. La composición no dice nada, porque Schubert compuso la música, la letra corresponde a un poema. No entiendo por qué la gente critica sin saber.

[berumenr1]

Dios Bendiga el talento que enaltece y transporta nuestros mas nobles y tiernos sentidos a las alturas celestiales verdaderas, para entregar un tributo tan merecido a la dulcisima madre de nuestro señor Jesucristo. Ave Maria con todo el sentido de mi alma a quien sublimemente se hizo la mas hermosa esclava del Señor de las alturas. Bendita seas oh madre nuestra. Perennemente ruega por nosotros pecadores, ahora y en la hora de nuestra muerte. Amen.

Both versions are beautiful. Just beautiful. Thanks so much.

Scusate scrivo in Italiano; L'Ave Maria di Shubert era dedicata a Maria Maddalena, non alla Vergine. Comunque buon ascolto, pax.

[saber41322]

@LAZYBOP- No señor, no confunda con su comentario a las personas. María Magdaalena, no llevó jamás a El Hijo de Dios en el Vientre, y la composisión muy claramente dice: Et Benedictus Fructus Ventris, Ventris Tuy Jeusus. Eso lo sabía muy bien El compositor Shubert. Así que Esta alabanza ha sido compuesta para La Virgen María la Madre de Dios. Fijaos en la Segunda Mitad Sancta María Mater Deus.

@mukotrp RCA album LSP-3885. Released in 1967. Side 2 Track 2. Oh yeah, the name of the lp is "Class Guitar".

I hate that you had to take the first version off. It was so beautiful.

[daffydoug]

@pattykake19 Pattkake, I never took it off, it's stiill here.

[bobilly1492]

This is chet at his best . Shubert and mother mary must be embracing right now with tears in their eyes...like mine .

[jayGopee]

AVE MARIA , RUEGA POR NOSOTROS

@Getzrules What's a tabulator? Can I get one too?

[dvmagic]

If this was done first I definitely like how it smoothed out over the years. Version 1 is by far my favorite piece of his.

[cantfindmysox]

i'm not sure if this chet. the timing is off and stiff. if this is was chet he was sleeping while this was recording down the block.

my 2 cents. still is nice.

[daffydoug]

@cantfindmysox I pulled it off a Chet record..vinyl, so I can guarantee you it's Chet.

[biggfingger5]

@cantfindmysox Actually,you will find this style throughout classical music. It is an intentional way to put drama into the composition,instead of just a virtuoistic flurry of notes.

[kevinmom]

please don't make these smart comments without verifying. This is Chet.

[highlander00]

makes the spirit soar!

[nmcmom]

Any version of the Ave Maria is a good version but coming from Chet it is great

[angry1278]

this is chet. you guys don't know shit. as usual.

[regeditXVI]

But this is not chet...i play this song better of this 1000 time!

[G128QQ]

AMAZING!!!

[DHudelson]

I'd be curious to know the chronological order of these two versions.

I personally prefer the other and consider the orchestral accompaniment a worthy enchancement. Beautiful stuff, and have appreciated your other Chet stuff, Doug

[daffydoug]

@DHudelson Chronologically this was recorded first and the other toward the latter part of his career.

[Fr3derick]

Awesome!!

[cmans79tr7]

Another excellent version. But of course... this is Chet Atkins.
