Description
Stabat mater for Soprano, Alto, Strings and Basso continuo Arranged for soprano and alto duet with piano Originally scored for Soprano solo, Alto solo, Violin (2), Viola and Basso continuo (Violoncello, Double bass and Organ). Urtext edition. Vocal score edited by Malcolm Bruno and Caroline Ritchie. Arranged by Malcolm Bruno. Text in Latin with commentary in English and German. The “Stabat mater," composed shortly before Pergolesi’s untimely death at the early age of 26, quickly attracted attention. The work’s importance was soon so great that none other than Johann Sebastian Bach performed a German version of the work based on the 51st Psalm. Numerous copies, prints and arrangements attest to the work’s vast popularity, a popularity that still exists today. For the present edition, the autograph was for the first time compared to a very early Neapolitan score that is presumably based on the parts from the work’s premiere. The findings have influenced the musical text; the details are described in the critical commentary. Includes a clear, idiomatic piano reduction.
