Karen Carpenter doing Ave Maria

Ave maria

Gratia plena

Dominus tecum

Benedicta tu

Inmulierbus

Et benedictus

Fructus ventris tui, jesus

Sancta maria

Sancta maria

Maria, ora pro nobis

Nobis pecatoribus

Nune et in hora

In hora

Mortis nostrea

Amen

Amen

Ave Maria!

Maiden mild!

Oh, listen to a maiden's prayer

For thou canst see amid the wild

'Tis thou, 'tis thou canst save amid despair

We slumber safely till the morrow

Though we've by man outcast reviled

Oh, Maiden, see a maiden's sorrow

Oh, Mother, hear a suppliant child!

Ave Maria

Ave Maria, gratia plena

Maria, gratia plena

Maria, gratia plena

Ave, ave dominus

Dominus tecum

The murky cavern's air so heavy

Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smiled

Oh, Maiden, hear a maiden pleadin'

Oh, Mother, hear a suppliant child

Ave MAria

Ave Maria

Many others including opera stars have done this. None so particularly heartfelt and moving as this. Indeed, perhaps the angels are silent when she sings out of their respect.

I listen to this song and try to analyze the comparison with Karen Carpenter singing this piece, compare to other singers. I think I know what I am getting at now. Karen has a maternal authority/way in her singing. The confidence, the care, the love, the general earnest way about her presence in a song. She may not have found the true love in her life when she was alive, but she knew how to give what she longed for and applied it to the songs she sang.

I'm usually not a fan of this song, because it is generally over sung in a show off kind of way that takes away from the meaning. Karen has captured the essence of the lyrics and sung them in her wonderful Karen Carpenter way, mellow, softly, without over doing it. The pictures in this video compliment the song well.

Merry Christmas to everyone. Here is a very different version of Gounod's "Ave Maria" by Karen Carpenter. I have never heard this sung with an alto voice before. It sounds wonderful.
