The masterpiece of a composer who died young. Pergolesi’s “Stabat mater” in a new Urtext edition

Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (1710–1736) undoubtedly had one of the shortest creative careers of all the important composers in the canon of Western music. Within a period of just six years, his comparatively small number of complete compositions became established as his musical legacy. One of his best-known works, the Stabat mater for soprano and alto solo and orchestra, was composed in 1735/36 in the Franciscan monastery in Pozzuoli near Naples. There, Pergolesi, suffering from tuberculosis, spent the last months of his life. The work was probably first performed in March 1736.

The success of the Handel renaissance. Handel’s “Dixit Dominus” in a new edition

As early as 1960, George Frideric Handel’s Dixit Dominus was published as part of the then comparatively new Halle Handel Edition (HHA III/1). Eberhard Wenzel edited this volume, primarily intended for practical performance use, and hoped back then in 1960 that it would “enrich the Handelian repertoire for church and concert hall by the addition of a valuable, interesting and strongly effective work”. This intention was more than fulfilled, and in the intervening years, Handel’s youthful, demanding Dixit Dominus of 1707 has become a quintessential staple of the Baroque repertoire.
