Via Dolorosa

POD-Nico Muhly's Stabat Mater Dolorosa for Soprano Baritone and Ensemble. Full score. My Stabat Mater is a very simply-constructed piece of music. I knew I wanted to write a duet a piece of religious music and something to go along with a bit of Birtwistle. My initial instinct was to base the piece on drones as Birtwistle's music has so very many notes but then I decided that an austere but ecstatic approach was the best to fill a coherent evening. I asked my friend Craig Lucas to paraphrase the Stabat Mater text - which describes the Virgin Mary weeping at the foot of the cross on which her son is crucified. The piece is organised byseparating each phrase of the text with a moment of silence with the exception of the last three which are joined with a frenzied chorale with improvised dynamics from the Harp Wind and Strings. - Nico Muhly Instrumentation: Soprano and Baritone voice Flute Clarinet in Bb Harp Violin Viola and Violoncello.

Par PERGOLESI GIOVANNI BATTISTA. The ?Stabat Mater? is a 13th-century Catholic hymn to Mary which has been set to music by many composers throughout history. Composed in the final weeks of his life, Giovanni Battista Pergolesi originally scored it for solo soprano and alto voices, accompanied by strings and basso continuo. The haunting first movement, ?Stabat Mater Dolorosa,? is full of anguish and musical suspensions, a perfectly suitable candidate for arrangement for clarinet choir. / Date parution : 2022-11-29/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Clarinettes

Par VASKS PETERIS. The Latvian composer Peteris Vasks, who is known for his atmospheric pieces for string orchestra, “Cantabile”, “Musica dolorosa” and “Voices”, is concentrating increasingly on chamber music: his latest works are the “Partita” for cello and piano, the “Fifth String Quartet” and a piano quartet. Vasks has brought elements of ancient and folk traditions in Latvian music into his compositions. While most of his works have programmatic titles relating to natural processes, Vasks is not concerned with a poetic homage to Nature, nor with depiction of landscape as an aesthetic ideal. The main themes which Vasks explores in his most recent musical work are the reciprocal relationship between man and Nature, the beauty of life and the impending ecological and moral destruction of these values./ Répertoire / Quatuor à Cordes

The Stabat Mater is considered to be of 13th century Franciscan origin. In the 15th century it was used as a sequence in connection with the new mass of the compassion of the Virgin Mary and became an official part of the Roman liturgy in 1727.Picturing the darkest hour in the passion story the poet poignantlydescribes Mary the mother of Christ broken by suffering weepingat the foot of the cross.The setting by Pergolesi composed in Naples Italy shortly before hisdeath from tuberculosis at the young age of 26 is recognized as amasterpiece. Pergolesi has cleverly combined 2 styles: the learnedcounterpoint of the style Antico and the new decorative languageof the Neopolitan opera. Composer/critic Jean-Jacques Rousseau calledthe opening movement 'the most perfect and touching duet to come fromthe pen of any composer'. The final amen can be heard at the end ofthe movie Amadeus. Mozart greatly admired the music of Pergolesi.The complete work was first published in London in 1749. The excerptsthat were chosen for this edition work extraordinarily well withyoung treble voice choir.Included In Collection:1. Stabat Mater Dolorosa- Mvt 1.2. Quae Moerebat Et Dolebat- Mvt 4.3.
