Margherita Torretta plays Scarlatti Sonata K.132 in C major. Recorded in Lugano (Switzerland),on December 2016. Steinway concert grand, model D

Domenico scarlatti(1685– 1757) was an Italian composer who spent much of his life in the service of the Portuguese and Spanish royal families. He is classified primarily as a Baroque composer chronologically, although his music was influential in the development of the Classical Style and he was one of the few Baroque composers to transition into the classical period. He composed in a variety of musical forms, although today he is known mainly for his 555 keyboard sonatas. The keyboard sonata K.132 “Cantabile” has a single movement in a binary form with suggestive dissonance and figurations, harmonic audacity in its use of discords, and also unconventional modulations to remote keys.
