Domenico Scarlatti’s "Stabat Mater" for ten voices can be considered as a masterpiece in the choral literature. Its generous dimensions, its unique spatial concept, its irresistible dramatic sweep, its lyrical sweetness, all bound together with clear stylistic unity and superlative organization of the coloristically restricted resources, places it in the company of the great musical architectural creations of the first part of the 18th century.
