Danesborough Chorus is joined by Alina Orchestra under the baton of Ian Smith for a performance of Dvorak Stabat Mater with soloists Elizabeth Bottone (soprano), Lauren Easton (mezzo), Justin Lavender (tenor) and Jonathan Gunthorpe (bass).
Not only is Dvorak’s composition the longest Stabat Mater, it is also widely ackowledged to be one of the most beautiful. It is both a choral masterpiece and a profoundly moving work, with the composer’s grief permeating the heart-tuggingly powerful music while still providing an inspiring and positive statement of faith and hope.
Though the Stabat Mater is arguably Dvorak’s best known sacred composition, it is rarely performed nowadays. This concert therefore presents a rare opportunity, not to be missed, to hear this truly unique work.
