The bells in "Night on Bald Mountain", originally meant to signal the coming of dawn, now seem to be church bells signalling the beginning of religious services. The song for this piece is in English, and was written by Rachel Field, who based it on Schubert's original. Only the third verse made it into the film (one line in the last verse is partially repeated to show how it is sung in the film):"



Ave Maria! Heaven's Bride.
The bells ring out in solemn praise,
for you, the anguish and the pride.
The living glory of our nights,
of our nights and days.

The Prince of Peace your arms embrace,
while hosts of darkness fade and cower.
Oh save us, Mother full of grace,
In life and in our dying hour,

Ave Maria!"


THANKS PEACEKEEPER JON!






Sincerely yours in Jesus and Mary,


Mike Rizzio, SOLT

Imitate Mary
Become like Jesus
Live for the Triune God

Seek the Light of Our Lord Jesus Christ
See you on the High Ground!
