Ave Maria, Angelus Domini (Franz Biebl)

+J.M.J.+ How much do we love our Blessed Mother? Let's count the ways and here's one! Uploaded as a special request years ago, this was just a practice rendition of Franz Biebl's Ave Maria by a few of the (former) San Juan Bautista Traditional Choir members, El Paso, Texas.
Franz Xaver Biebl (1 September 1906 -- 2 October 2001) was a German composer of classical music. Most of his compositions were for choral ensembles. Biebl was born in Pursruck, now part of Freudenberg, Bavaria, in 1906. He studied composition at the Musikhochschule in Munich. Biebl served as Choir Director at the Catholic Church of St Maria in München-Thalkirchen from 1932 until 1939, and as an assistant professor of choral music at the Mozarteum, an academy of music in Salzburg, Austria, beginning in 1939, where he taught voice and music theory. Biebl's best-known work is his Ave Maria (1964), which sets beautiful music to the lyrics of the ancient Catholic prayers; the Angelus and the Ave Maria. Although it was originally scored for male voices, after "Ave Maria" became popular the composer himself rearranged the piece for SATB and SSA choirs as well.

Monthly Tridentine Masses are offered for all our benefactors who are also remembered in our daily prayers. Deo grátias! Thank you!
