Synopsis "Stabat Mater - A Symphonic Cantata - For Soli, Chorus and Orchestra - Sheet Music for Pianoforte - Op.96"
This volume contains the sheet music for Charles V. Stanford's "Stabat Mater, Op. 96". It is a 'symphonic cantata', a vocal composition accompanied by instruments, typically in several movements and often including a choir. Sir Charles Villiers Stanford (1852 - 1924) was an Irish composer, conductor, and teacher of music. He was educated at the University of Cambridge and continued his studies in Berlin and Leipzig. He was a very influential composer, responsible for making Cambridge University Musical Society an internationally acclaimed organisation. Stanford was also a profuse composer, producing a large corpus of work in many genres; however, he is perhaps best remembered for his Anglican choral works for church performance. His music eventually became overshadowed by that of Edward Elgar and a number of his former pupils in the 20th century. Contents include: "Prelude", "Quartet and Chorus. 'Stabat Mater'", "Intermezzo", "Quartet and Chorus. 'Eja Mater'", and "Finale". Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of musical notation.
