Hymn tune by Giovanni Pergolesi Giovanni Pergolesi's original work has been set here for 3-4 octaves of bells and optional 3 octaves of handchimes and keyboard. The keyboard picks up the sixteenth-note figures while the bells ring the melody backed up by chordal texture. The handchimes part is made up of quarter and half-note chords, however, there are some chords tied across the bar line. Level two pieces with this full sound should be welcome by directors of those choirs.

In Naples, late in the year 1734, Giovanni Battista Pergolesi obtained a commission from a brotherhood of noblemen to write a new setting of the Stabat mater text in order to replace the work of Alessandro Scarlatti, who had passed away in 1725. This work, too, was to be limited to two vocal parts, which reflects the intimate character of this devotional work. Just a few years after its creation, Pergolesi's Stabat mater setting became known throughout the entire musical world, regardless of all religious boundaries. No other musical work was printed and copied more often in the 18th century than the Stabat mater. The present edition is based on the autograph, which contains corrections and deletions. It seems to have been hastily transcribed from sketches intended for the copyist's use. The publisher thus faced a particularly challenging task here.Besten Dank fur die Bereitstellung von Notenmaterial auf dem letzten Stand fur gerade dieses hervorragende Meisterwerk!(Singende Kirche)Breitkopf stellt zu seiner Ausgabe des Stabat-Maters eine Taschenpartitur zur Verfugung - eine nach den Quellen sorgfaltig erstellte, vorbildliche Ausgabe in ubersichtlichem Druck und ausfuhlichem Vorwort.(Wurttembergische Blatter fur Kirchenmusik).

Based on “Ritorni al nostro cor la bella pace” from Salustia by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (1710-1736), “O Sing This Festive Day!” is a majestic opening number for school programs or church services. Incorporating optional hand drum and trumpet (parts are included in the choral), it is also a good supplement for music history studies. “O Sing This Festive Day!” gives singers an excellent taste of Baroque music without being difficult to learn.

Orig inally written for Cello, Ralph Sauer's brilliant arrangement of the Pergolesi Sinfonia (Sonata) for Trombone and Piano (or Harpsichord) has become a standard work in the solo repertoire. This new edition which replaces the previous one comes with some notable changes. Below is Mr. Sauer's description.
This new edition of the Pergolesi Sinfonia in F is an update of the original version which was first published 40 years ago (!) and is now permanently out of print. Movements one, two, and three are essentially the same. I have corrected a few errors in the keyboard part and also revised some of the notation� �notably, grace notes are now placed correctly. (The original publisher insisted that they should be placed after barlines, causing confusion as to whether they were to be played on the beat or before the beat.)
In the last movement, there are now two places where the keyboard takes over the solo line. In addition to providing much needed rest for the trombonist, it gives a change of color and a chance for the keyboard player to be the soloist for a few measures.
The original version of the last movement is also included as an appendix for those who would rather perform the original.
