Scarlatti: Stabat Mater and the music of seventeenth-century RomeComposers working in the churches and chapels of Rome in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries developed a rich, highly expressive style which brought liturgical music to vivid life. Chief among them was Domenico Scarlatti, whose Stabat mater was written for ten different voice-parts, with movements ranging from the lusciously lyrical to the vivaciously virtuosic. Punchy, ornate, and beautiful, it is a wonderful repertoire to explore. The concert is accompanied by the period-appropriate pairing of organ and theorbo, the baroque archlute.
