POULENC | Stabat Mater

Poulenc composed his Stabat Mater in memory of a friend, the painter Christian Bérard. The 12 contrasting movements form a palette of emotions, some deep, dark, and utterly serious; some exquisitely beautiful; others ferocious, brutal; others austere and deeply spiritual. 00:00 Stabat mater dolorosa 04:13 Cujus animam gementem 5:15 O quam tristis 8:01 Quae moerebat 9:29 Quis est homo 10:50 Vidit suum 14:29 Eja mater 15:38 Fac ut ardeat 17:57 Sancta mater 20:54 Fac ut portem 24:51 Inflammatus et accensus 26:50 Quando corpus The USJ Choir The Jeunesses Musicales du Liban Orchestra Yara Kasti, Soprano Yasmina Sabbah, Conductor June 2024, Saint Joseph Church, Beirut, Lebanon.
