Stabat Mater by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi: A Sacred Concert at the Church of Saints Cyrus and John

Tomorrow evening, at 7:30 PM, in the Church of Saints Cyrus and John in Vico Equense, the notes of the Stabat Mater by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi will resound. A sacred music concert directed by Maestro Paolo Scibilia, featuring the participation of Colomba Staiano (soprano) and Antonella Carpenito (mezzosoprano). The Stabat Mater, a poetic sequence attributed to Jacopone da Todi, is a text laden with pathos that describes the Virgin Mary's sorrow at the foot of her son Jesus's cross. Pergolesi's music, composed in the 18th century, captures the emotional intensity of the text perfectly, creating an atmosphere of deep emotion. The combination of the beauty of the Stabat Mater, the suggestive acoustics of the church, and the talent of the performers will make this event a must-attend for lovers of sacred music.
