AVE MARIA on SC, or if you prefer YT, then go HERE

This one is initially one of my entries in last fall's "Xtra" contest, which I've been intending to start posting in here too where there may be more ears to reach, so to speak, but am only first now finding the time to get around to it smirk

Anyway, I'm gonna start this off with my treatment of a well known classical piece, just the fit for an advent sunday - Enjoy! cool

I dig it! Reminds me of Ave Maria meets Whiter Shade of Pale. Thanks for (re)sharing!

Love it!!! The Bach/Gounod version is my favourite, too, and you did a splendid job on it :-)

Thanks for the generous feedback, guys, much appreciated as always cool

The Procol Harum allusion is something that honestly was nowhere in my head as I was doing this! But since their most known song (also mentioned above) is of course heavily ripping pages from Bach's work, it's perhaps not surprising that people think of it when hearing other rocked-up versions of classics, like this one.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
