Description

This recording presents a selection of Scarlatti sonatas played on the organ. In Scarlatti's time it was customary to play keyboard music on any keyboard instrument available: harpsichord, spinet, fortepiano, and also organ. There are several characteristics in a number of sonatas which indicate a specific use of the organ: the use of an independent bass line, the apparent dialogue between the two manuals of the organ, the use of strong instrumental contrasts. Several sonatas are actually called 'Fugue', its counterpoints very suitable for the organ. The sonatas called 'Pastorale' are simply crying out for the use of the 'Flautato' register. The recording is made on one of the largest Italian Baroque organs in the Duomo di Desenzano del Garda, restored in 2014 by Marco Fratti, the specifications of which are included in the booklet. Organist Nicola Reniero is one of the foremost keyboard players of Italy. He is one of the founders of L'Arte dell'Arco, he played with Christopher Hogwood and Gustav Leonhardt, and he recorded for Deutsche Harmonia Mundi, CPO and Brilliant Classics.
