Description

|
|
|
Poulenc wrote his Stabat Mater, a hauntingly passionate work in 12 slow and fast movements, after visiting the sacred shrine of the Black Madonna of Rocamadour. It was a journey that profoundly changed his life and work as a composer. "The clarity of sound and picture, combined with an astonishingly high energy performance made my near-elderly pulse course with delight."—Victor Lewis-Smith, Evening Standard "The 'extras' included … defy the norm by adding value to the whole package, powerfully complementing the musical programme and offering genuine insights into the spiritual background to Poulenc's work…. Robinson conducts in a way that allows room for phrases to develop naturally…. This Stabat Mater interpretation, enhanced by Judith Howarth's rich, honey-toned soprano solos and alert playing from the BBC Philharmonic, can stand comparison with the finest in the record catalogue."—Choir & Organ
