    This review is from: Marco Rosano: Stabat Mater (Audio CD)
    "This Stabat Mater is serene and meditative, focusing more closely on the spiritual weight of the moment than the drama of human tragedy. The music is full of grief, but is ultimately more transcendent than tragic, suffused, for all its dark clouds, with the light of redemption.
    Rosano's writing for Scholl is, not surprisingly, tailored to perfection. He shuns showy ornaments an high tessitura and explores instead Scholl's warm and expressive middle register, uncovering a depth of earthy expression which belies the notion of the countertenor voice as exclusively highly placed and ethereal. The piece may have been composed for Scholl, but it is no mere singer's showcase - the voice is incorporated into an eerie and inventive orchestral texture. The setting of the second and third movements is particularly effective, the short, insistent phrases of "Cuius animam gementem" giving way in "O quam tristis" to extraordinary and hypnotic melismas."
