notes

I often asked myself how the great composers would have sounded and arranged their music if they live now days and have new instruments, new technologies and ours furious pace of life? These thoughts resulted in creation of my own version of Ave Maria and rendition of Caccini, Bach-Gounod and Schubert' Ave Maria song.
In the end of XVI century Giulio Caccini composed the music for Hail Mary - traditional Catholic and Eastern Orthodox prayer calling for the intercession of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Ave Maria by Caccini is one of the most beautiful music for Hail Mary hymn and It's hard to believe it was composed more then 400 years ago. Great and absolutely contemporary music wich inspire us to create this almum.
Franz Schubert's Ave Maria song was composed in 1825. Originally Ave Maria song was titled "Ellens dritter Gesang" (Ellen's third song). The words to Ave Maria song were taken from Sir Walter Scott's poem The Lady of the Lake and Adam Storck wrote the German translation Franz Schuber used for his song. The person responsible for setting the Ave Maria lyrics in Latin remains a mystery to this day. This Schubert's Ave Maria version include both Latin and original German lyrics.
In 1853 Ch. Gounod made variation on the 1st prelude of Bach 's "Well-tempered Clavier" for violin and piano and six years later the words to Ave Maria song were added and this made this piece so popular
Johann Pachelbel canon in D composed in or around 1680 is the most widely used, recorded and recognizable instrumental work of all time. The Pachelbel canon may represent the most extraordinary instance of the crossover phenomenon in all of music. During a short period in the 1960-1970s it went from being a quite obscure work of early music to a universally familiar cultural item. The Beatles, The Who, Bee Gees, Aphrodite's Child, David Bowie, Mark Knofler and mamy many more (see the complite list of Artists and songs on www.origenmusic.com) seems to have been inspired and used chord progression and melody of Johann Pachelbel canon in D.
