Ave Maria by Franz Biebl; arranged by John M. Wetherington

May 14, 2022: "Aspirations" Performed at Bethel High School Directed by John M. Wetherington https://linktr.ee/southsoundsymphonic... In its original form, Franz Biebl’s Ave Maria (1967) was written for expanded male chorus, beginning with an antiphon sung by a four-part choir, answered by a smaller three-part choir. The source of the Latin text is the Angelus liturgy, which is recited three times a day (6 am, noon, and 6 pm) in the monasteries of the Catholic Church. It is cued by a bell (sometimes referred to as the “Peace Bell”), and consists of three versicles based on the Gospel—followed each time by a Hail Mary (Ave Maria.) It was popularized in the United States in large part because of the magnificent recording by the male chorus Chanticleer. In his arrangement for band, Wetherington acknowledges the human aspiration for salvation. ------------------------------ The South Sound Symphonic Band started in 1982, as the Federal Way Community Band, by Deanna Avery to meet the need for a local, adult community band. After a name change in 2002, the South Sound Symphonic Band focused its mission on supporting the community with regular performances and annual student scholarship. Today, the band serves the community through three major programs: Music Appreciation through Community Involvement Music Excellence through the Thomas E. Anderson Scholarship Music Education through Professional Development SSSB is a registered 501(c)(3) non profit organization funded by member dues, community grants, sponsorships, and most importantly, donations from our gracious patrons. The band performs four concerts each year and consists of amateur and semiprofessional musicians who enjoy the challenge of rehearsing and performing to high musical standards. Many of our members are also music educators allowing the band to serve as a platform for continuing education.
