Description
"Bach's Preludes are on holiday at the Mediterranean" – the wonderful alliance of polyphonic fluency and musical delight in Domenico Scarlatti's piano sonatas could be described thus. Originally composed for harpsichord, these pieces exhaust the technical and tonal possibilities of keyboard instruments in such a refined manner that pianists have never been able to resist playing them on modern pianos, whether grand or upright.
