Brian Blyth Daubney

About the composer

Brian Blyth Daubney was born in 1929 and studied in Leicester with Benjamin Burrows, on whom he wrote a M Phil thesis in 1980. He was editor, and later chairman, of the British Music Society. Until his retirement in 1982 he was Principal Lecturer in Music at the Simon de Monfort University in Leicester, after which he was an examiner for the London College of Music until 1999. Being fully retired now, he devotes his time to writing music and poetry.

About the Stabat Mater

Date: 2001
Performers:

Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass, choir and organ.

Length: 10.03 minutes
Particulars:

According to the information I received the Stabat Mater is divided in 15 parts. In the synthesized performance that I have, it is music that is easy to listen to, without heavy dissonances.

Textual variations:

The "Vatican"-version of the text is followed, but for stanzas 16-18 the "Analecta"-version is used.

In 1997 I created the Ultimate Stabat Mater website for Hans with the program FrontPage. At that time he had around 40 Stabat Mater CDs. His notes on the composer, the music, the texts and translations and the different versions all came online. After this he managed the site by adding new composers and translations regularly. At the time of his death in 2005 he had 211 Stabat Maters. After his death I continued collecting the information and managing the site. I wish to thank the Dutch Stabat Mater Foundation which gave me the financial support in 2014 to renew this site!
