Scarlatti sonata
on: November 20, 2012, 10:09:53 PM
Which Scarlatti sonata is this ?

Scarlatti sonata

On my LP record, it's listed as K83 in F major, but it's an error (K83 is in A major). Does anyone know which one is it ?

Thank you.

Did you mean to attach something? Or should I just be able to guess  ;D
Which LP do you have?


EDIT: Maybe just a typo, K483 is in F major...

So are K82 and K85, using the same logic.

OP - we need more information to be more than guessing....

It does seem to have been given the excusively harpsichord treatment, but here's one from YT on piano:

Should have written professional recording... In these ages I guess it would be difficult to name a piece that you can't find on YT?

A complete version of Sorabji's Piano Sonata No 5 appears to be completely absent.

What a pity (?) Has anyone ever played it?

Not in its entirety. I understand Tellef Johnson has performed extracts, and may well be contemplating doing the whole thing. Perhaps Alistair could advise if this is the case.
