DESCRIPTION:
We are glad to announce the debut of the Brébeuf Virtual Choir!
The BVC is a choir formed by singers who have attended the annually occurring Sacred Music Symposium in Los Angeles, California. The focus of the BVC is to promote sacred music.

Our first project is this virtual recording of Kevin Allen’s Ave Maria, a beautiful Marian motet for this month of May in 2020. Mr. Allen blends contemporary sonorities with principles from the Renaissance and classical choral heritage. You can read more about his compositions at https://www.ccwatershed.org/allen/.

Text:
Ave María, grátia plena; Dóminus tecum: benedícta tu in muliéribus, et benedíctus fructus ventris tui Jesus.
Sancta María, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatóribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostræ. Amen.

Translation:
Hail Mary, full of grace; The Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou amongst women, And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
