Ricercar pro tempore adventus (Ave Maria klare)

This piece is also known as "Ricercar pro tempore adventus". The text of the choral venerates Maria as the mother of Christ. Fischer creates a great fugue on the first segment of the melody of this choral. He writes music of such natural flowing beauty, that you have to look at the score to see how intricate he weaves his counterpoint.
