  • Description

    A super-budget introduction to the riches of the Spanish piano repertoire, including many critically acclaimed recordings. While Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) was born in Naples, he spent the greater part of his career on the Iberian Peninsula, and died in Madrid in 1757 as the composer of 555 keyboard sonatas which would, more than any other single body of work, bring Spanish idioms into the mainstream of European classical music. Many organists and keyboard composers preceded him, but few if any could match his spirit of caprice and restless in-vention as he fused Hispanic rhythms with the fairly new form of the keyboard sonata.
