Franz Biebl, Ave Maria
[…] happy)! Franz Biebl: Ave Maria (Angelus Domini). Cantores Cathedrales & Lund Cathedral Boys’ Choir, Eva Svanholm Bohlin. Ave Maria. Proprius 2042, Tr 18 In 1964 a German fireman asked Franz Biebl (1906-2001), his church organist, to write a piece for the men’s choir at the firehouse. He did, they sang it, and it was forgotten. A few years later, though, Biebl, directing music at a radio station, showed it to the touring Cornell University Glee Club. They took it back to the U.S. It started to be known, and when Chanticleer recorded it, it became a worldwide hit. Biebl and others have arranged it for different ensembles, vocal and instrumental (the radiant, surging harmonies transport alike a mixed choir or a drum and bugle corps) but the sound of the original double men’s choir version is unmatched.
