Paul Carr
AVE VERUM CORPUS for mixed voice choir
Goodmusic GM268
A stunningly beautiful and very moving setting by Paul Carr of the Ave Verum Corpus for mixed voice choir, soprano saxophone and accompaniment of either string orchestra or organ. It was commissioned by the Chancel Choir of the Centenary United Methodist Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA in memory of their former Director of Music & Arts, Dr. Robert Frazier who died in 2018 at the age of only 53.
Whichever accompaniment is used, the choir uses the Vocal Score (which gives a piano reduction of the saxophone and accompaniment).
For the version with organ, the organist will require the Organ Score.
For the string orchestra accompaniment, a Full Score and all the parts are on sale.
The Soprano Saxophone is required whatever accompaniment is used and a separate part is on sale.
Duration 6½ minutes
