@Nikolausius title.

I like most of Scarlatti's works, but in my opinion, if the dissonant chords weren't just bad playing, I think they sound out of place for a baroque composition.

[Trinitrotolaissance]

@Alexjr1543 I think that was Scarlattis whole goal in this piece! To be extreme and to kick hard against the established ideas/rules of music of that time.

I love this type of harpsichord. (the way its played) You can really get more feeling out of it. Can you recommend others like this that you have? If you have time. Thanks so much for all these uploads.

Michele Benuzzi, absolute must. He's in my videos "Clash of The Titans" and "Laughing in the face of Insanity ". Absolute Scarlatti connoisseur just like Enrico Baiano (I have all his Scarlatti in a playlist). Then there's Ottavio Dantone, Sergio Vartolo and so on. If you want to hear Scarlatti, those are your names. The instrument that Benuzzi used can in no way be described in words, just listen to it. Enjoy :-)

@CardinalPugwash MInd you, this geezer plays it a lot faster than I can or would if I could.

@Alexjr1543 The dissonant chords are right there in black and white on the page.

Feo. Ugly.

Pierre Hantai, the rockstar of harpsichord.

I LOVE SCARLATTI

Could someone explain to me what another poster said about Scott Ross's version being "pure"? Is it the tuning of his instrument?

And WHOA, listen to those dissonant chords! Why have I never heard them like this ever in my life?

@Alexjr1543 Perhaops in many Baroque compositions, yes, but Scarlatti's use of dissonance was quite remarkable. Also his music by this stage was deeply influenced by flamenco & other Spanish gypsy dance idioms. Check out K 12 for instance; it wouldn't work otherwise! But this is all a matter of personal taste really. :)

@Nikolausius BTW I said "chronological" order - not necessarily that, but musicological perhaps?

[person3enpassant]

@Nikolausius Ralph (I think was his Christian name) Kirkpatrick was a harpsichordist, & among a few who tried their hands at putting Domenico Scarlatti's sonatas - (all 555 of them, not just "The Queen's Book") - into chronological order around 1953, a bit like Kochel did with Mozart I guess only not so many works! Others include Alessandro Longo - "L" numbers, which you'll see too - & a guy called Pestelli in the late 1960's, tho' I've yet to see a "P" number! The K-s are most popular.

@Alexjr1543 List to Rebel's Cahos from Les Élémens; this is a baroque ornament called "acciaccatura" that is widely underused.
