  • From now on, that's my favorite Vivaldi piece. I only knew the stabat mater version of Giovanni Pergolesi, but this one's much better. The basso continuo provides the harmonic structure very well. Thanks for uploading this gem of sacred music.

  • Well, I wouldn't say this is better than Pergolesi's version; I absolutely LOVE Pergolesi's, and it's so...no words to describe it fully. However, Vivaldi's is incredible as well.

    Thank you for your opinion, Daniel. :)

  • Ouf...The cello is just...incredible, the organ sensible and delicate, the hapsicord almost non-existent yet there, unique. The voice slow and immensiley profound. Yes, I guess this is how I would describe this version: Immensely deep and profound. Thank you very much for posting it.

  • wonderful

  • 'Tis simply and sublimely a thing of beauty.

  • excellent phrasing with the countertenor. His sensitivity to the manuscript makes this for me along with the counterpoint. Thank you very much:)
