When Giovanni Battista Pergolesi died, in 1736, at the age of twenty-six, he had been in the care of the Franciscan monks in Pozzuoli, near Naples. In his few months at the monastery, he composed a Salve Regina for soprano and strings and the now well-known Stabat Mater. But Pergolesi had been actively writing church music for nearly ten years, and this two CD set surveys his output, using as a framework a Vespers service from 1732. Much of the music for this particular event survives; the rest has been reconstructed and filled out by musicologist Malcolm Bruno and edited by Edward Higginbottom, who also conducts the forces here.
