For SSAATTBB Voices, a cappella
By Richard Burchard
The Hail Mary prayer is well-known throughout the world and sung in many languages. This setting in Spanish is warm and lush, and written specifically for the choir's tour to Spain. Carrying a Renaissance flavor robed in 21st century harmonies it feels fresh and timeless at the same time. Commissioned by one of the finest high school choirs, it is a piece for an accomplished ensemble in concert or on tour.
