STABAT MATER
STABAT MATER
Tuesday 15th April, 7.30pm, Hall One
Bernard Labadie and The English Concert come to Sage Gateshead for an exploration of one of the most moving and iconic sacred texts ever written.‘ The Stabat Mater’, attributed to Jacapone da Toni, portrays the mother of Christ as she stands at the foot of the cross which bears her crucified son. Vivaldi responded to the often unbearably moving words with sombre brilliance, and Pergolesi with music of acute intimacy and emotional directness which never fails to move.
With a pre-concert talk Buses from Alnwick and Hexham. Tickets: £ 10- £ 33
