Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by Toomey, Daniel. Christian,Classical,Easter,Sacred. Score and parts. 7 pages. Gordon Cherry #2075367. Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.810741).Dated within the last six months of the composer's life, the Ave Verum Corpus, K. 618 is a profound example of the unrivaled beauty, elegance and simplicity of Mozart's style. It is a stand-alone choral work based on a sacred Latin text, probably written for a Corpus Christi service in Baden, near Vienna. Often cited as one of Mozart's most "perfect" works, it’s sublimity inspired the following remarks from Albert Einstein: "the perfection of modulation and part-writing, lightly introducing polyphony as a final intensification, (is) no longer perceived. Here...ecclesiastical and personal elements flow together. The problem of style is solved." Originally scored for four-part chorus (SATB), organ and strings, this beautiful arrangement by Daniel Toomey preserves the original key and markings; the only additions are the "molto cantabile" marking in the solo voice and the suggested metronome marking of q=80.
