Pergolesi foi encomendado em 1734 pela Cavalieri della Vergine dei Dolori escrever um Stabat Mater novo para substituir o agora fora de moda escrito por Alessandro Scarlatti para o Cavalieri. Pergolesi terminou poucos dias antes de sua morte.
O Stabat Mater tornou-se famoso em toda a Europa
e se tornou um símbolo da perfeição
e da universalidade do estilo italiano.
Bach ainda prestou homenagem a ele em seu motete
"Tilge, Hochster, meine Sunden".

Bach even paid homage to it in his motet "Tilge, Hochster, meine Sunden".
