Send us a text Description Gounod’s Divine Remix: A Heavenly Twist on Bach in 60 Seconds. Take a minute to get the scoop! Fun Fact Gounod’s Ave Maria wasn't originally intended as a standalone work. It began as an improvisation over Bach’s 1722 prelude, and the Latin prayer was added later. Today, it's often mistakenly credited to Bach alone, despite Gounod’s soaring melody being the emotional centerpiece that transformed it into a sacred favorite. ____________________________________________...
