Paisiello, Giovanni: Stabat Mater del Pergolese (Viola)
Coll’aggiunta de’ Stromenti da fiato
Part book for Viola
In 1810 Giovanni Paisiello performed his transcription of the Stabat Mater by Pergolesi in Naples’ Cathedral on September 16th and published it in Paris.
For our generation, raised in the respect of the original text – a due respect given the many inappropriate and misleading additions piled up in centuries – the listening of this transcription offers us a great opportunity for enjoying Pergolesi’s masterpiece in a different perspective.
