Title: Ave Maria
Instruments: Mixed choir a cappella
Date of composition: 1977
Duration: 2′

Ave Maria was composed when the author was a student at the School of Music Jose Angel Lamas Caracas Venezuela in 1977. We can listen in this work, a very simple and effective voices and harmonic structure movement: In this piece a formal and very important aspect of construction is anticipated in the author's work. This fundamental aspect will be developed in later works such as: Mass for mixed choir, Sextet No. 3 for woodwinds and strings, Trilce for orchestra, Two Pieces for Max for soprano and trio of wind instruments and Amor América for low-baritone voice and wind metals. This formal element is (seen at a basic level) in the use of very close intervallic distances between voices or instruments (minimum 2 voices), ie, the voices (or instruments) are related by intervals of second (minor and major).
