Program Notes on Ave Maria - Meditation by Gounod :

This sheet music is the instrumental version of Gounod's Ave Maria for violin and piano in the key of C Major.

It is based on the original 1853 instrumental version.

Gounod entitled this instrumental version Méditation sur le 1er Prélude de Piano de J.S. Bach [Meditation on the Piano Prelude No. 1 by J.S. Bach].

It is only in 1859 that Gounod adapted this Méditation to become his famous Ave Maria.

The present sheet music is intended for intermediate-level violinists.

The violin part is to be played in the first four positions.
