The Lamentation of the Virgin Mary, the religious hymn Stabat Mater Dolorosa (Stabat Mater Dolorosa), describes the sorrow and mental pain of the Virgin as she mourns Jesus under the Cross. The poem inspired many composers, including Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (1710-1736) who, at the age of only 26 and shortly before dying of tuberculosis, composed the masterpiece "Stabat Mater" for two female voices and baroque ensemble.
