Ave Maria

[black_ronin]

There is something special about this song. I am not a religious person but this evoces in me a feeling of the holyness of all existence.

This is the Ave Maria by Franz Schubert http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bosouX_d8Y

This one by Johann Sebastian Bach/Gounod http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suZ4IYVLZbU&feature=related

I like too this song. And in particular the version Noa sing :

(even if she has a certain vision of the world and Palestine)

Yes, I love this song, too!
Do you know Luciano Pavarotti's version? --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRI5F54kc_g

For me- one of the greatest composer -ever - he wrote his Ave Maria

Verdi Othello: Ave Maria

Desdemona prays- just before she dies- before Othello kills him.

One of the most beautiful haunting moving music-for me-ever!

Alfredo Kraus' version is beautiful too. I understand what you mean when you talk about this piece.

I am not sure if this one is in the above links, but this
seems like the one I have commonly heard and the best
part, is the piano stands out along with the singing and
not regulated to the background very quietly:
