Domenico Scarlatti: Harpsichord Sonatas - Colin Tilney

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Here is a collection of excellent Scarlatti performances, with particularly realistic recorded sound. Other listeners probably won't care as much as I do whether a performer plays Scarlatti's Sonatas in the pairings arranged by Ralph Kirkpatrick. But Kirkpatrick made a convincing case that Scarlatti intended most of the Sonatas to be played that way, and Colin Tilney keeps only two pairs together in this recording. It's a little like recording a collection of Haydn Sonata movements that don't belong together. Tilney does give us brilliant Scarlatti, and, although he doesn't embellish his repeats, at least he plays them. --Leslie Gerber
