Playing on period instruments, Le Concert de la Loge and their conductor Julien Chauvin continue their Haydn adventure with a programme consisting of the little-known and rarely heard Stabat Mater and two more of the Paris Symphonies (Nos. 84 & 86).
Composed in 1767, with the ‘Sturm und Drang’ movement at its height, Stabat Mater was nevertheless one of the most frequently performed of Haydn’s works during his lifetime.
Strikingly sober in expression and contemplative in character (“Fac me veretecum flere”), it also contains moments of exaltation (“Sancta Mater, istud agas”).
