No one is so eminently personal as Scarlatti: he obeys no rules but his own. When he arrived in Portugal at the age of thirty-four, he was still no more than a conventional composer, overshadowed by his father, even if he had made a reputation as an outstanding virtuoso. But the discovery of new cultures had a revelatory effect on him.
This volume 6 continues Pierre Hantaï’s exploration of the sonatas of Scarlatti.
