Duettino
Esquisses Opus 63 (Sketches)
Charles Valentin Alkan
In this scintillating miniature, titled "Duettino" to mark the independence of the treble and bass voices, Alkan bares a hommage to Scarlatti, whose short sonatas were admired by Alkan for their harmonic and textural values.

I started to see that even a Romantic master can completely represent Baroque music. I want to play ALKAN!
