scarlatti k119

[pianistimo]

another scarlatti.  the ending is probably too fast - but i thought maybe the first part was ok. i can play this a bit better.  maye a take 2 or 3.

[piano121]

Very enjoyable to listen. Much better than the mozart stuff.

[pianistimo]

better?  boo hoo.  well - i really wasn't working the rondo ala turca - i just wanted to play it that dya because we were discussing it on another thread.  but, what about my mozart fantasy. i will have to play it today.  i think you'll like it.

Pianistimo,

Very clear, crisp and precise articulation.  It's so Scarlatti.  Great!

[gonzalo]

Incredibly good

My only suggestion would be a little ( just a little) bit faster.

Take care,
Gonzalo.

can you play the cat fugue  K.30 / l 499?

[pianistimo]

i'll try.  i've not worked it before.  why is it called the 'cat fugue,' may i ask?

[gonzalo]

Because Scarlatti's cat walked on the keyboard and played those notes, and Scarlatti thought they made a good subject for a fugue.
