Stabat Mater - Music for Holy Week 2025
About
Canticum Chamber Choir and Orchestra with soloists and conductor Emily Cox AM, present the Australian première of Swedish composer Fredrik Sixten's brand new major work "Stabat Mater”. A 13th century hymn, the Stabat Mater portrays Mary at the foot of the cross experiencing her son's crucifixion - an extraordinary depiction of a mother’s suffering, watching her child’s unjust punishment and death. Sixten, acclaimed world-wide as a truly significant composer of our time, creates a pathos-filled setting, masterfully balancing melody, dissonance and expressivity to produce a powerful, moving work. Canticum is proud to present this outstanding new contribution to contemporary sacred music for the first time in Australia.Location
