Description:

The sorrow of the F minor that refracts and resonates, the dull glint between dissonance and harmony, the poignant prayer of the Minaj, the true Stabat Mater! The Stabat Mater is one of the most sublime and holy miracles in 18th century religious music. The Ensemble Resonanz, a renowned organization that has been working on the theme of "resonance" between ancient and modern music, and Riccardo Minaj, artist-in-residence since 2018, will shed a surprisingly contemporary light on this moving work. It is not only beautiful, but poignantly expresses a sadness that sometimes sounds unsettling and piercing. The creak at the beginning of the film, which repeatedly hits and resolves itself. The minor key is like the depths of darkness, and the major key is like a faint light. The tremendous range of expression of the strongest and weakest notes, including the song. The spirit of the baroque art of contrasting light with life in the darkness comes through dramatically and vividly. The two singers, singing as if they were squeezing out blood and suffering, are truly wonderful. The coupling of the two singers, who resonate with each other, is also very remarkable.Ragazzi's sonata for three violins and bass clef makes effective use of sophisticated counterpoint, and a progression similar to that in "Stabat Mater" appears in the second movement. Subtitled "Imitation of Salve Regina," the music is full of grace and elegance, while interweaving technicalities. Like "Stabat Mater," "Salve Regina" by Catalan composer Joan Rosell, featuring two female singers as soloists, is also beautiful to the point of mournfulness. The music has long been attributed to Pergolège, and the language is truly Pergolège's own. Although the work is full of mysteries, its dramatic expression is as good as the original.
