Stabat Mater (P.77)is a musical setting of the Stabat Mater sequence, composed by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi in 1736.Composed in the final weeks of Pergolesi's life, it is scored for soprano and alto soloists, violin I and II, viola and basso continuo.
The autograph manuscript of the work is preserved in the Benedictine Abbey of Monte Cassino.
The work is divided into twelve movements, each named after the incipit of the text. Much of the music is based on Pergolesi's earlier setting of the Dies irae sequence.
This is probably the most well known piece, it is the first movement.
