Stunning pick for a thread.  The Schubert is more familiar to me.  Just listened to Bach/Gonoud and it's wonderful, too.  They both make me feel the presence of Our Lady.

HONK!

I'm an Andrea Bocelli fan.  Guy has more musical talent in a hangnail then most modern pop stars could dream of.

Oh... I like like the Aussie (Mirusia Louwerse) who tours with Andre Rieu.  Talk about the voice of an angel, she is also easy on the eyes.   :aok

Just watch the video and see how she puts the audience in a trance.  Amazing stuff.

Props the op, not too many Schubert fans on the interwebs these days :)

Bocelli is good, I enjoy listening to him. For me though no one comes close to Pavarotti.

Not bad, one of the better renditions I've heard with a man singing and I say that with all due respects to the late Maestro Luciano Pavarotti.  I think Ave Maria is best sung by a woman (unless that woman is Aretha Franklin, then I'll take anyone including the neighbor's dog over her screeching), but that is my opinion.   :)

I feel the same way. Of course the men singing are talented... extremely talented... but to me this song just doesn't sound right with a man singing it.
