After Te Deum, Arvo Part-Live and Miserere, Stabat Mater is already the fourth album to emerge from the close artistic collaboration between the composer and the Bavarian Radio Chorus, and to be recently released by BR-Klassik. In addition to the impressive Stabat Mater, this newly-released album offers some of the works that are key to the composer's stylistic development, and rarely appear in the concert repertoire or as recordings.
