CACCINI "Ave Maria" (for Two Flugelhorns)

Here is the quiet and introspective “Ave Maria” by Italian composer, Giulio Caccini. There is some question as to the origin of the piece. It seems it was “discovered” by Russian, Vladimir Vavilov in 1970 and original sheet music showed it to be composed by “Anonymous.” Whether he composed it and did not want credit or discovered and arranged the piece which was subsequently attributed to Caccini is unclear. What is clear is that the very simple piece is quite beautiful.

Originally, we produced a couple versions in different keys for just a few brass instruments. I decided to add an additional version in this new key as well as accommodating all the brass, as well as new parts for strings and woodwinds. I think this new key sits very comfortably with the flugelhorns.
Thanks to arranger, Algirdas Matonis, and to pianist, Birutė Stundžiaitė. Also, thanks go to good ol’ reliable Dmitry Babkin. And always kudos go to DFMusicInc for their continued support.
