Who is the Composer of this song

[rosegrower]

Geoffrey Burgon.

[BirgitMunro]

This is so beautiful. But then anything written by Geoffrey Burgon is always superb. Would love to get a CD of All Angels. Don't remember this in Brideshead, but was many years ago. The Mozart & William Byrd settings of Ave Verum are also lovely - the Rutter one leaves me cold.

[elegie84]

I never heard for this version of Ave verum, but I like it ver much. Nice performance! :-)

[raGeomikou]

Ave Verum has been used by many composers. They can not be compared.

Each composer has his own idea. All Angels do a great job. Congratulations!

Brideshead Revisited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[BernardProfitendieu]

@Lois561 if you imagine Mozart wrote the original version of Ave Verum Corpus, you're off by only about three centuries!

[Lois561]

Why wouldn't they just sing the original version by Mozart? Its kind of throwing me off but it is still nice.

[LaBelleMichele]

I love, love, LOVE this version...... If I were ever to get married again (highly unlikely given I am a crabby old lady) I would have this played at my wedding....

[regensburger]

really angels are singing

[holmsatlarge]

@BirgitMunro It is used for the main theme and background music(In both instances without lyrics).

[hagiosbenediktos]

This was so beautiful it had me in tears! God bless you girls!!!! I'm a fan of the Brideshead Revisited series, and what you did with Geoffrey Burgon's piece adds a depth of spirituality that is very much a part of the novel's main theme: grace. And what greater grace is given to us than our Lord's presence in the Eucharist! Ave Verum Corpus!
