I’m old. I’ve been playing these ´Happy Freaks´ since forever. Bravo! You get it! Very pianistic, not at all pedantic. Scarlatti wrote these for pianists (especiallyr the very talented Queen of Spain) with the intention that they should be fun to play7. And you do! I love your fearlessness, and I am in favor of your ornaments and riffs. Scarlatti obviously expected this, and you display a deep knowledge of how to draw attention to altered passages, but Even better, when to leave them alone. Please continue..
As a fellow member of Generation G (Geezer), I totally agree. IMO Andrea Molteni's prodigious technical skills and his willingness to take chances (comes what may) are ideally suited to the music of Domenico Scarlatti.
Heard? H(ammere)d, I'd say. The guy is playing as if he's in a hurry to finally get rid of this boring Scarlatti thing and go do some more enjoyable things
@@tadeuszmrownik-dzikowski5335Boring?! Hardly. IMO you completely missed it. If you want staid, boring Scarlatti listen to Horowitz recordings. . (Scott Ross had some hghly critical things to say about Horowitz's playing of the Scarlatti sonatas.) This young man and the phenomenal harpsichordist Diego Ares are currently the two Brightest Stars playing Baroque keyboard sonatas.
Becoming an accomplished master of Scarlatti's intricate compositions, especially any of the complex sonatas written for the clavier, all of them requiring skill, I would say is worthy of accolade, as long as he's not wearing a diaper on his head... not for the stroke of a blade but a welcoming brush of a sword to keep the dust off the the shoulders. If I had enough money, I'd commission an artist to make a sculpture of this guy and put it next to the bust of Anastasia Huppmann... for a gift to be held close to the bosom of my favorite pianist, and the berth of my sea of dreams to be encompassed and adorned with things I like.
Super virtuosic, expressive performance, thank you! Usually I like Scarlatti on a harpsichord far better, but this is a perfect piano version, thank you!
Sem dúvida um dos melhores compositores do barroco. A linguagem harmônica, assim como a retórica e a polifonia mais livre, com vozes menos restritas a um espaço pequeno, mas que dão saltos que transpassam uma ou duas oitavas, são sem paralelo para o período. A originalidade da construção das frases e da macro-estrutura musical das sonatas também chama a atenção.
If Scarlatti had a brilliant teenage son he might play like this after getting his mohawk. There is no doubt that this guy has chops, but at my age I don't know how to get there with my beloved Scarlatti.
many of these tempos and ornaments could simply not be performed so fast on a harpsichord. still, i am glad to have this version even if i do not believe it is faithful to scarlatti.
You are so wrong. It’s the opposite actually. Harpsichord is faster than piano. So is fortepiano. Piano has the highest tension and heaviest hammer, so it’s slow. In fact, there ornaments are there because of harpsichord. As harpsichord’s note do not sustain long, composers in the baroque era added these ornaments to make the music continuous.
@paul hartley5579. Not so, Paul. Check out the incredible performaances by the extraordinary harpsichordist Diego Ares. He plays with the Nethwrlaqnds Bach Society. (On YT.)
Whoa, I don't think I've ever heard K.24, yet it starts the same, or at least very similarly to another one of his. Did you by chance make an adaptation? I loved it either way!
Why do his interpretations sound so cold and soulless? He plays with expression, but it seems to be defeated by something, it seems strangely ungrounded. What piano is he playing? It sounds as if it were an 18th century fortepiano equipped with an extraordinarily responsive modern piano repetition action. Rarely if ever do modern Steinway grands repeat like this. It's more than the pianist's hyperkinetic fingers, it's the instrument. The novelty of his conception of attack is initially fascinating but its novelty in the fast movements palls and becomes merely superficially sensational. The slower movements are more musically successful and are at times fascinating in touch and sonority. Still, there's something emotional missing, as if a robot or AI were playing. I'd rather hear the Scarlatti of Landowska, Horowitz, Tipo, Marcelle Meyer, Michelangeli, and others.

Amazingly enjoyable version of Scarlatti! How wonderful and fresh Scarlatti sounds! I've been listening to Scarlatti sonatas for nearly 40 years!

I've never heard Scarlatti played like this before! Incredible!
Thank you!!

impeccable techniques.
This is the first time I've heard of it instead of Harpsboard! RIP Scarlatti
I actually really like the pianist's freedom to play Scarlatti
Freedom, indeed. Bingo! - and Bravo! to Andrea Molteni.
Becoming an accomplished master of Scarlatti's intricate compositions, especially any of the complex sonatas written for the clavier, all of them requiring skill, I would say is worthy of accolade, as long as he's not wearing a diaper on his head... not for the stroke of a blade but a welcoming brush of a sword to keep the dust off the the shoulders.

Fantastic. Thank you for uploading.
Enjoyable performance and beautiful sonatas! Thank you for uploading!
This is so beautiful that I wish (and hope) that human art and creativity never dies and goes away, especially not to be replaced by A.I 😢.
i thought i set the playback speed at 1.5x, when i checked, it was normal... 😅
Super virtuosic, expressive performance, thank you! Usually I like Scarlatti on a harpsichord far better, but this is a perfect piano version, thank you!
Wow!! Thanks!!!
Wow. Slightly manic. And delightful. Thank you very very much
Yep..

Superb! Just superb!

Bravissimo
Notevole!
Magnificent!

The lovely piano sounds just like a overturned toy box ! I enjoyed a lot .
Thank you.
Io lo trovo semplicemente strepitoso.
Anque Io
Grazie!!!

This is so unique or rather strange avant-garde interpretation.
"Strange" works for me. I'll stick with Horowitz.
Yes, manic. But, I also agree, nice to have a new, almost jazzy take on this wonderful music.
Whoa, I don't think I've ever heard K.24, yet it starts the same, or at least very similarly to another one of his. Did you by chance make an adaptation? I loved it either way!
Si il grande genio Domenico Scarlatti
gian dark -- Sí.....BRAVO desde Acapulco!
Ottima esecuzione 👏
Oh ja,Scarlatti gefällt mir, melodisch,feinund zeitlos,finde ich und sage: Dankeschön 😊
Muy buena interpretación, representa fielmente el espíritu de Scarlatti.
很棒喔👍👍
it was awesome. A giant artist. Thanks for uploading.
Great performance and good selection (perhaps, a few pieces I really love are missing but "de gustibus... ")
Andrea Molteni is to Scarlatti as the young Glenn Gould is to Bach.
Wow!! Thanks for your amazing comparison 😍
Was Scarlatti’s harpsichord game really *that fast* ???
I got slightly seasick from the first movement -- wild tempo variations
ANDREA TU MUSICA ES FANTASCO, MA OGGI TOCCAR EN UN CEMBALO POR POR ACTIVAR EL CHARACTAR AUTENTICO.
Too fast! Sounds like a typewritwer.
Why do his interpretations sound so cold and soulless? He plays with expression, but it seems to be defeated by something, it seems strangely ungrounded. What piano is he playing?

I'd rather hear the Scarlatti of Landowska, Horowitz, Tipo, Marcelle Meyer, Michelangeli, and others.
Domenico Scarlatti?
Yes, from the video info-text: "Composer: Domenico Scarlatti, Artist: Andrea Molteni (piano)"
Of course‼You must read the description section below the playview of this video‼
