About

Pergolesi Year 2010 celebrates the birth 300 years ago of a first rank composer whose death at 26 robbed music of a singular voice.

Autumn’s 2009 release of this first volume of a three album all-Pergolesi project, featuring Orchestra Mozart conducted by Claudio Abbado, whets the appetite for succeeding volumes while creating buzz for the commemoration year itself.

25 years after recording the Stabat Mater, Pergolesi’s most popular piece, Maestro Abbado unveils his new vision of this sublime score with a cast of splendid singers.

Playing a priceless Guarneri Giuliano Carmignola, winner of Germany’s Echo award and the French Diapason d’or, records Pergolesi’s Violin Concerto for the first time.

November 2009

…the curiously ambivalent Stabat mater, part operatic, part austere. The dark and complex voices of Rachel Harnisch and Sara Mingardo emphasise its dramatic nature. Singing quietly they are profoundly impressive; their duet 'Sancta mater' is heavenly (with Mingardo plumbing extraordinary depths in a closing cadenza), as is the stillness of the final 'Quando corpus'. ...a most enjoyable and revealing disc.

11th September 2009

The Stabat Mater is the main work, in a striking performance that manages to be at once devotional and operatic. There's a fiery austerity in the conducting and string playing...The real treat here is the Violin Concerto, played with casual sensuality and great elegance by Giuliano Carmignola.
