Work Overview
This short five minute work for string trio is based closely upon a song I composed for solo female voice which sets the traditional Latin text of Ave Maria.
The violin here takes the vocal part and presents it as a kind of Song without words. In the compositional background there are melodic and phrasal echos of both Schubert and late Beethoven; the listener may perhaps hear these models emerging to the foreground more clearly than in most other works of mine. The work is dedicated to the memory of my father.
