This aria was originally composed by Vladimir Vavilov but ascribed to Caccini due to some anonymity when he released it and thus caused a great deal of mystery and confusion pertaining the true composer of this aria.
Nonetheless, this aria is one of my favourite rendition of "Ave Maria" besides Schubert's, Otello's and Gounod's. With a very serene-like vibrant sound, it should be sung lightly, which explains why most people who sing this aria fail to bring out the true full-fledge beauty of it. However, Sumi Jo the Lyric Coloratura Soprano from South Korea will beautify your hearts when you hear her marvellous interpretation of this aria.
