Description:
In the spring of 1816, the nineteen-year-old Franz Schubert completed his second "Stabat Mater" in the midst of a period of great productivity. In contrast to the first composition from the previous year, which only lasted five minutes, this time Schubert based his setting on the German translation by Klopstock. This edition is the first source-critical edition of this work with complete performance material. The work in dark F minor, with Klopstock's text, places Jesus Christ, not Mary, at the center of contemplation. With its fugues, but especially in the eight-part plaintive chorus "Wer wird Zähren sanften Mitleids", Schubert shows himself at the height of his creative powers - his 4th symphony, the "Tragische", was composed at almost the same time.
The Stabat Mater offers a rewarding task for oratorio choirs such as cantorias, because the choir is the work's main vehicle and the choral parts are not too demanding. The composition is therefore also a fine introduction to Schubert's choral-symphonic music for less powerful choirs.
