Stabat Mater

Medieval Latin sacred poem, probably by Jacopone da Todi, not originally liturgical, but increasingly used for devotional purposes until it was admitted as a sequence to the Roman missal in 1727.

The Stabat Mater has been set to music by numerous composers, including Antonín Dvořák, Joseph Haydn, Karol Szymanowski, and Guiseppe Verdi.
