There are very few composers who have left such a comprehensive oeuvre covering all genres as Camille Saint-Saëns. His vocal music, however, has rather fallen into oblivion - if one leaves aside his 'indestructible' Christmas oratorio (Oratorio de Noël, Opus 12). But apart from that, Saint-Saëns, who worked as an organist at various churches from 1852, composed a number of little church music works: settings for different instrumentations, certainly destined to be used in services, including his Ave verum for four-part choir (including organ without pedal ad lib.). It is a simple, yet harmonically rich setting which constitutes a valuable addition to the choral repertoire and an evocative alternative to the common Ave settings.
Sobre mais riche harmoniquement, cet Ave verum constitue un apport précieux au répertoire pour choeur et aussi une alternative aux autres versions musicales connues.
