Extra Information | Ave Maris Stella (After Dufay), translated as “Hail Star of the Sea,” is based on several settings of an eponymous liturgical hymn, including two attributed to French composer Guillaume Dufay. Using a wide array of contrapuntal techniques, these settings have been incorporated into a single instrumental work. |
