Ave Maria (Vavilov)
(Redirected from Ave Maria (Giulio Caccini))
"Ave Maria" is a much-recorded aria, composed by Vladimir Vavilov around 1970 and often misattributed to Renaissance composer Giulio Caccini. Vavilov himself published and recorded it in 1970 on the Melodiya label with the ascription "Anonymous". It is believed that organist Mark Shakhin, one of the performers on the "Melodiya" LP, first ascribed the work to Caccini after Vavilov's death, and gave the "newly-discovered scores" to other musicians. The organist Oleg Yanchenko then made an arrangement of the aria for a recording by Irina Arkhipova in 1987, after which the piece came to be famous worldwide.[1][2][3]
