About New Album

Alessandro Scarlatti (1660-1725) und sein Sohn Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) sind heute die beiden bekanntesten Vertreter der im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert europaweit tätigen Musikerfamilie Scarlatti. Alessandro war einer der Hauptexponenten der neapolitanischen Schule und zu Lebzeiten besonders geschätzt für seine Vokalmusik (Opern, Oratorien, Kantaten u.a.). Domenico ist heute vor allem durch seine zahlreichen Kompositionen für Tasteninstrumente berühmt, die hauptsächlich in Spanien entstanden. Hier werden Kantaten der beiden effektvoll mit Sonaten Domenicos kombiniert.

Alessandro Scarlatti (1660-1725) and his son Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) are today the two best-known representatives of the Scarlatti family of musicians who were active throughout Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries. Alessandro was one of the main exponents of the Neapolitan school and was particularly appreciated for his vocal music (operas, oratorios, cantatas, etc.) during his lifetime. Today, Domenico is most famous for his numerous compositions for keyboard instruments, which were mainly written in Spain. Here, their cantatas are effectively combined with Domenico’s sonatas.
