In Provence, about 1399, it was used during the nine days processions.Īs a liturgical sequence, the Dolorosa was suppressed, along with hundreds of other sequences, by the Council of Trent, but restored to the missal by Pope Benedict XIII in 1727 for the Feast of the Seven Dolours of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Dolorosa was well known by the end of the 14th century and Georgius Stella wrote of its use in 1388, while other historians note its use later in the same century.

The Dolorosa has been set to music by many composers, with the most famous settings being those by Palestrina, Pergolesi, Scarlatti, Vivaldi, Haydn, Rossini and Dvořák. It is sung at the liturgy on the memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. H Purcell: Arias and dances: Evening Hymn (1688), Didos Lament (Dido and Aeneas,1689), Fairest Isle (King Arthur, 1691), Music for a While (Oedipus, 1692). The Dolorosa hymn, one of the most powerful and immediate of extant medieval poems, meditates on the suffering of Mary, Jesus Christ's mother, during his crucifixion. The title of the sorrowful hymn is an incipit of the first line, Stabat mater dolorosa. Of two hymns, Stabat Mater Dolorosa and Stabat Mater Speciosa, Stabat Mater usually refers to the first, a 13th-century Catholic hymn to Mary, variously attributed to the Franciscan Jacopone da Todi and to Innocent III.
