Scarlatti: Sonatas - Andrea Molteni - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Scarlatti Sonatas is an album by Andrea Molteni, released in 2022. The album is a classical CD.

Born in Italy in 1685, Domenico Scarlatti spent the majority of his career in the service of the Portuguese and Spanish royal families – with the latter appointment enabling him to devote his full attention towards composing for the harpsichord.

Written in single-movement form, Scarlatti’s sonatas reveal the development of new playing techniques, including note repetitions and fast passages in parallel 3rds and 6ths, as well as the innovation of musical structures, which point to the emerging Classical style.

Young Italian pianist Andrea Molteni presents his personal choice of sonatas, in which all the aspects of the composer’s musical and technical genius are represented.

Andrea Molteni is one of the most talented young Italian pianists of his generation. He enjoys the artistic guidance of William Grant Naboré and Stanislav Ioudenitch under the auspices of the prestigious International Lake Como Piano Academy. Molteni’s mentors also include Arie Vardi, Pavel Gililov, Piotr Paleczny, Vladimir Feltsman, Christopher O’Riley, Vovka Ashkenazy, Mario Patuzzi and Vincenzo Balzani. He is prize winner of several international competitions and gave concerts in the Wiener Saal of the Mozarteum University in Salzburg, Scriabin Museum in Moscow, Concert Hall of Chopin Music University in Warsaw and many more. His previous recording for Piano Classics was the complete piano music of Petrassi and Dallapiccola, which received glowing reviews in the international press.
