Isn't that the piece by Charles Gounod that uses the first prelude of the first book of the Well-Tempered Clavier as its accompaniment? Otherwise I can attest that Bach wrote no settings of the Ave Maria text.

Hahaha, my bad, this is the piece I meant...

Ave Maria (after Bach) by Charles Gounod.

You know your Baroque. :oops:
