The understated style of Ave verum corpus, set for 3-part treble a cappella, belies its emotional power. The familiar chant melody weaves among the sections, and each repeated “Ave, ave” recalls the object of this Eucharistic hymn. The unmetered notation allows the natural stresses of the Latin to be primary.
