A concert for Lent, looking forward to the Passion seen through
the eyes of Mary. The theme of Stabat Mater, evoking the mother of
Jesus standing at the foot of the Cross, has been put in music by many
composers, and Scarlatti’s version possibly served as an inspiration to the
better known one by Pergolesi. Biber’s Mystery Sonatas are a series of pieces
to accompany the meditation on the Rosary, from the Annunciation to the
Coronation of the Virgin. They are deeply expressive works for the violin,
and will form an intriguing contrast with the poignancy of the beautiful
voices in the Stabat Mater. Tickets: £17.50 (£5
students, school children & unemployed) Tickets
are available now: For more information,
