Schubert, F
Schott's edition of 'Ave Maria' op. 52, No. 6, composed by Franz Schubert (1797-1828), is arranged by Wolfgang Birtel for flute and piano accompaniment. It includes the score and solo part and is classified as easy for the solo flutist.
'Ellens dritter Gesang', in English: 'Ellen's Third Song', was composed by Franz Schubert in 1825 as part of his Opus 52, a setting of seven songs from Walter Scott's popular epic poem 'The Lady of the Lake', loosely translated into German. It has become one of Schubert's most popular works, recorded by a wide variety and large number of singers, under the title of 'Ave Maria' (after 'Ellen's song', which is a prayer to the Virgin Mary), in arrangements with various lyrics which commonly differ from the original context of the poem.
