@@canman5060 Hahahahaha. Sorry, you surprised me. KK 141 is a fine and spirited piece, but are you going to miss it for the whole 7 hours? The words you may be groping for here are, "Thanks for uploading!"
I don’t think there’s anything of the ‘Romantic’ at all in Scarlatti - whatever that means; what we have is a hugely individual, personal and unique voice of the Baroque that cannot be explained by comparing it to a completely alien aesthetic of a different age in a different part of Europe. That said, any performance of Scarlatti on a modern piano* given by a pianist whose training and repertoire is likely to be heavily weighted towards 19th century works is likely to sound far more ‘Romantic’ than would a performance by an 18th century specialist on a harpsichord (or piano). * Even the use of the pedals on a modern piano alters the mood of a Scarlatti sonata dramatically, especially the slower ones.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 Well we disagree. These eras - Baroque, Classical, Romantic - were all going to inevitably come into existence. Artists were going to eventually come up with music that was very emotional, personal, and highly expressive of one's self. That is what we hear from Scarlatti. Baroque was the background music of the Age of Reason, where emotion was kind of frowned upon. I did not say that Scarlatti's music (was) Romantic. I said it was "more" Romantic than Baroque. And it is.
@@DannyintheSpirit You’ve put your finger on exactly the reason I have a problem with music outside a bunch of composers including the most obvious candidates in Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, and Liszt being labelled ‘Romantic’, ‘more Romantic’, or whatever, and that is that ‘…music that was very emotional, personal, and highly expressive of one’s self’ has to be reserved solely as a descriptor and definition of one period or style of music alone, and then everything matched against it as a yardstick of emotion in music. I agree entirely that your description fits Scarlatti, just that it’s neither ‘Romantic’ nor ‘more Romantic’ than some other music of the Baroque or Classical periods. Regardless, your comment was noted with interest.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 Well, I was using the word Romantic loosely to make my point. These words like Baroque and Romantic and Postmodern etc... exist and are used in books about classical music (and they always will be), so we have no choice but to use them even if they are not perfectly accurate. Let us just say that Scarlatti's music was more like Chopin and others from the mid to late 1800s than it was like those of the early and mid 1700s.
@@DannyintheSpirit I think its good to differentiate between romantic as personal expression and Romantic as a cultural movement. Scarlatti followed Baroque musical format style - that's what they worked with. He brought to much to it, yes. As did Vivaldi - who actually was prefiguring Romanticism style with his Four Seasons, where the music was literally imaginative picture painting. Baroque, Classical and Romantic as cultural styles have specific characteristics.

What a giant composer is Scarlatti....what a giant melodies he has composed. Million bravo.....on the other hand, the pianist is an excellent artist with super technic and excellent nuance. Bravo.
Écouter ces délicieuses sonates si inspirées et diverses, dès le matin, c'est absolument radical pour dynamiser sa journée ; la placer aussi sous le signe de la beauté et de la poésie... Bravo au pianiste pour son interprétation sensible et soignée. Merci pour ce merveilleux partage.☺
Domenico was first professionally hired as composer and organist at age 16! As most know, his father was also a famous composer, in contrast most known for his works of opera and vocal music. [Giuseppe was his first name] Domenico also composed operas cantatas, and church music. He did spend about half his life in Iberia - first Portugal, then Seville, then Madrid the city where he composed most of these Sonatas. Since the pianoforte had not been invented, and the harpsichord , through which keys pluck strings does not hold tones, and cannot vary dynamically as can one in the varied percussion of pianoforte hammers, his organ music may help understand more of his musicality.
Je ne connaissais pas ou très peu Scarlatti et, en écoutant ses sonates j'ai vraiment l'impression d'avoir manqué quelque chose, la légèreté, la tendresse, la poésie, en deux mots: la Beauté ! Une expérience extraordinaire au royaume de la Musique. Un petit coin de Paradis. J'adore !
This composer is underrated. In my opinion, the greatest of all time would always be Mozart (followed by Bach and Beethoven no doubt), but Scarlatti deserves more appreciation for his works.
If you change ‘greatest’ to ‘favourite’ then your list is valid as a personal preference, if you insist on ‘greatest’ then in effect you are trying to rank the colours of the rainbow and it is a pointless exercise, especially as in the case of the three composers you mentioned, you are comparing apples and pears. Really not sure why you should consider Scarlatti ‘…underrated’: every professional pianist has a number of his sonatas in their repertoire, they appear on exam syllabi all over the world, they are widely performed, there are a huge number of recordings on both harpsichord and piano, et cetera.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 if you insist to adopt logical approach, then nothing should really be discussed because your logic could be different than mine and it does not necessarily mean that one is better than the other. Underrated in my definition means lack of appreciation. Handel is far more popular than Scarlatti although according to history, they had similar level of skills in music. Mozart is the greatest because he was the most talented among every other composer.
@@liszt77777 As an opinion, no problem, but stated as an objective fact (as in your last sentence), all you are doing is stating that red is the greatest colour above blue of green or whatever, and it is open to challenge. In areas like opera, the piano concerto, or chamber music other than string quartets, Mozart composed some of the greatest works in western classical music, but in other areas, even in his own time, he does not stand above Haydn for example in the areas of symphony, string quartet, mass, oratorio, or piano sonata for example. If we take just the last category - the piano sonata - I would suggest of Mozart’s 17 sonatas that: 3 are masterpieces (K310, K333, and K457) 6 are better than the remainder 8 (the rest). To this list we should add at least four of the miscellaneous piano works such as the Rondo in a minor (K511), and the Adagio in b minor (K540) which are magnificent. Leaving out Beethoven who apart from the early sonatas WoO 47 and Opus 49 which shouldn’t be included anyway, and whos remaining 30 sonatas are almost all masterpieces, but taking the more relevant example of Haydn, then I would list the following sonatas and miscellaneous pieces as on a par with Mozart’s greatest (arguably slightly beyond in one or two cases). Haydn’s greatest sonatas (listed chronologically) at least on a par with Mozart’s greatest: Sonata in A flat Hob. XVI:46 Sonata in c minor Hob. XVI:20 Sonata in F Hob. XVI:23 Sonata in E flat Hob. XVI: 49 Sonata in C Hob. XVI:50 Sonata in E flat Hob. XVI:52 And like Mozart, to add two miscellaneous piano works: Fantasia in C Hob. XVII:4 Andante con variazioni Hob. XVII:6 From these examples it illustrates the difficulty of labelling one composer *the* greatest when another contemporary wrote works of a demonstrably comparative standard; if you are expressing a personal preference, of your own favourites, then all the above is irrelevant, but not when making objective assessments of ‘greatest’. I could do a similar exercise in those areas where Haydn similarly stands with Mozart or indeed beyond - as Mozart went beyond Haydn sometimes - but to take just one example: Haydn’s f# minor Symphony 45 (‘Farewell’) of 1772 is *the* single greatest work of through-composition and cyclic integration before Beethoven’s 5th of 1808; Mozart attempted nothing comparable. I would not disagree with you that Mozart sits at the top table of the musical Mount Olympus, and is one of the greatest of all composers in western classical music; my problem is with anyone retaining the definite article to this description whilst removing ‘…one of’, or indeed applying it to any other composer.
Thank you! Really enjoying this brilliant music. Sometimes I find myself holding my breath during a particularly complicated passage! Haven't even listened to 2 hrs yet, so I bookmarked it in case YT drops it from my notifications list. Edit: Have now listened to the whole
@@elaineblackhurst1509 From my point of view it is, scarlati reminds me a lot of bach, and bach is strongly associated with gould in my head. But from your point of view I would believe you that I may be talking nonsense
Scarlatti composed wonderful piano music. Most of his creations are difficult to play. He befriended Handel when H. Lived in Rome. He had a contest with Handel with no winner, however Handel won on the organ.
Scarlatti’s keyboard music was almost entirely conceived for the harpsichord, but does transfer extraordinarily well to the more modern piano as well. The range of technical and musical difficulty of his 555 sonatas is enormous, there are sonatas that can be played successfully by very early grade pianists, up to those like K141 or K299 that are off the scale and best left to professionals.
Grazie , grazie per questa super raccolta. Esecuzioni molto belle, grande tecnica, colore e sensibilità. .Che bella la n. 208 a circa 5 minuti...ed altre veramente intense. 👏👏👏
Such a prolific musical genius Scarlatti- every phrase of his is sweet to hear and the phrases add up to a fine whole. I am only into the first sonatas and I will take time to listen. Can't rush the good things of life. Many thanks for uploading this wonderful selection.
If I can give a really good book to read while listening to this, it is "555" (555 for the 555 sonatas) from Hélène Gestern, a French writer It is about an unknown and mysterious sonata which has been discovered. It's a masterpiece, especially when the music hits you as the book is moving and interesting. Here is the summary ; "It was by undoing the lining of a cello case that Grégoire Coblence, the partner of a luthier, discovered an old score. Was it written by Scarlatti, as he seems to think? But, scarcely deciphered, the score disappears, arousing crazy lusts. Five people, whose lives are intimately linked to the work of the musician, set out in search of the precious document without realizing that this desperate quest will change their lives for a long time. Domenico Scarlatti, a brilliant composer with 555 sonatas, is the theme of this musical novel. Its enchanting music is the soundtrack."
Mi piace molto-molto Domenico Scarlatti simile compositore Italiano, nasque il 26/10/1685 il Palermo Sicilia e morte il 23/7/1727 il Madrid-monumento il Madrid (71 aeta).
Amici della musica ciao a tutti ,insomma non.propio a tutti ,tanto so ' che in mezzo c'è chi preferirebbe guardare tik tok sul cellulare ,battuta a parte ,Ogni tanto immagino la musica dentro un pentolone ,e sapere poi cosa c'è dentro ,in questo caso un autore di tutto rispetto Scarlatti , compositore neanche a dirlo Napoletano ,apro una parentesi ,il popolo napoletano anno per caratteristica tutto e il contrario di tutto ,le sue opere per cembalo sono proprio come e' il carattere e la personalità dei napoletani ,possono essere amabili ,cordiali ,vanitosi ,capricciosi ,di cuore ,gelosi ,ma anche presuntuosi ,folli ,gentili ,signori etc ,la loro maschera pulcinella ,gia ' la dice lunga ,queste sonate di carattere aperto ,brillante ma anche malinconico perché in fondo i napoletani sono anche questo , trasmettono tutte le sfumature senza tralasciare niente , perché poi accontentarci di una sonata x quando possiamo trovare in queste titti i tipi di sentimento ,dall'allegro ,allo spensierato ,al malinconico ,etc .poi sono belle da ascoltare e suonare .
Thank you for watching!

These words like Baroque and Romantic and Postmodern etc... exist and are used in books about classical music (and they always will be), so we have no choice but to use them even if they are not perfectly accurate. Let us just say that Scarlatti's music was more like Chopin and others from the mid to late 1800s than it was like those of the early and mid 1700s.
@@DannyintheSpirit I think its good to differentiate between romantic as personal expression and Romantic as a cultural movement. Scarlatti followed Baroque musical format style - that's what they worked with. He brought to much to it, yes. As did Vivaldi - who actually was prefiguring Romanticism style with his Four Seasons, where the music was literally imaginative picture painting. Baroque, Classical and Romantic as cultural styles have specific characteristics.
Domenico Scarlatti, maestro eterno
Nice to hear Scarlatti on the piano over 4 hours. I do have the complete Belder collection. Scarlatti is the Chopin of Baroque era. Forever unique.
Does that then make Chopin the Scarlatti of the Romantic ?
@@elaineblackhurst1509no
Your comment is a disgrace to Scarlatti.
your comment is a disgrace to the world.
Magician music cannot be not romantic , its brother and sister , is not it?
Scarlatti forever!

What a giant composer is Scarlatti....what a giant melodies he has composed. Million bravo.....on the other hand, the pianist is an excellent artist with super technic and excellent nuance. Bravo.
Écouter ces délicieuses sonates si inspirées et diverses, dès le matin, c'est absolument radical pour dynamiser sa journée ; la placer aussi sous le signe de la beauté et de la poésie... Bravo au pianiste pour son interprétation sensible et soignée.
Merci pour ce merveilleux partage.☺
I know little about classical music . I just discovered Scarlatti from Thomas Mann's book Doctor Faustus . I hope I'll discover more
I work in front of a computer a good part of the day. This music is a perfect accompaniment.
Lovely to hear this heavenly delight while working.
Me hace falta un botón de "Me encanta" para esto.
Un botón de, el paraíso 🙏🕯️
Domenico was first professionally hired as composer and organist at age 16!
As most know, his father was also a famous composer, in contrast most known for his works of opera and vocal music.
[Giuseppe was his first name] Domenico also composed operas cantatas, and church music.
He did spend about half his life in Iberia - first Portugal, then Seville, then Madrid the city where he composed most of these Sonatas.
Since the pianoforte had not been invented, and the harpsichord , through which keys pluck strings does not hold tones, and cannot vary dynamically as can one in the varied percussion of pianoforte hammers, his organ music may help understand more of his musicality.
You can hear in some of his pieces that his stylings were imitated. He is by far one of the best composers of his time.
Je ne connaissais pas ou très peu Scarlatti et, en écoutant ses sonates j'ai vraiment l'impression d'avoir manqué quelque chose, la légèreté, la tendresse, la poésie, en deux mots: la Beauté ! Une expérience extraordinaire au royaume de la Musique. Un petit coin de Paradis. J'adore !
Thanks millions...My favorite Scarlatti...💗💓💓💘❤💚💙❣
Un trésor musical immense. Des sonates d'une extrême intensité. Un talent fou du compositeur et du pianiste. Alléluia.
This composer is underrated. In my opinion, the greatest of all time would always be Mozart (followed by Bach and Beethoven no doubt), but Scarlatti deserves more appreciation for his works.
If you change ‘greatest’ to ‘favourite’ then your list is valid as a personal preference, if you insist on ‘greatest’ then in effect you are trying to rank the colours of the rainbow and it is a pointless exercise, especially as in the case of the three composers you mentioned, you are comparing apples and pears.
Really not sure why you should consider Scarlatti ‘…underrated’: every professional pianist has a number of his sonatas in their repertoire, they appear on exam syllabi all over the world, they are widely performed, there are a huge number of recordings on both harpsichord and piano, et cetera.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 if you insist to adopt logical approach, then nothing should really be discussed because your logic could be different than mine and it does not necessarily mean that one is better than the other. Underrated in my definition means lack of appreciation. Handel is far more popular than Scarlatti although according to history, they had similar level of skills in music. Mozart is the greatest because he was the most talented among every other composer.
@@liszt77777
As an opinion, no problem, but stated as an objective fact (as in your last sentence), all you are doing is stating that red is the greatest colour above blue of green or whatever, and it is open to challenge.
In areas like opera, the piano concerto, or chamber music other than string quartets, Mozart composed some of the greatest works in western classical music, but in other areas, even in his own time, he does not stand above Haydn for example in the areas of symphony, string quartet, mass, oratorio, or piano sonata for example.
If we take just the last category - the piano sonata - I would suggest of Mozart’s 17 sonatas that:
3 are masterpieces (K310, K333, and K457)
6 are better than the remainder
8 (the rest).
To this list we should add at least four of the miscellaneous piano works such as the Rondo in a minor (K511), and the Adagio in b minor (K540) which are magnificent.
Leaving out Beethoven who apart from the early sonatas WoO 47 and Opus 49 which shouldn’t be included anyway, and whos remaining 30 sonatas are almost all masterpieces, but taking the more relevant example of Haydn, then I would list the following sonatas and miscellaneous pieces as on a par with Mozart’s greatest (arguably slightly beyond in one or two cases).
Haydn’s greatest sonatas (listed chronologically) at least on a par with Mozart’s greatest:
Sonata in A flat Hob. XVI:46
Sonata in c minor Hob. XVI:20
Sonata in F Hob. XVI:23
Sonata in E flat Hob. XVI: 49
Sonata in C Hob. XVI:50
Sonata in E flat Hob. XVI:52
And like Mozart, to add two miscellaneous piano works:
Fantasia in C Hob. XVII:4
Andante con variazioni Hob. XVII:6
From these examples it illustrates the difficulty of labelling one composer *the* greatest when another contemporary wrote works of a demonstrably comparative standard; if you are expressing a personal preference, of your own favourites, then all the above is irrelevant, but not when making objective assessments of ‘greatest’.
I could do a similar exercise in those areas where Haydn similarly stands with Mozart or indeed beyond - as Mozart went beyond Haydn sometimes - but to take just one example:
Haydn’s f# minor Symphony 45 (‘Farewell’) of 1772 is *the* single greatest work of through-composition and cyclic integration before Beethoven’s 5th of 1808; Mozart attempted nothing comparable.
I would not disagree with you that Mozart sits at the top table of the musical Mount Olympus, and is one of the greatest of all composers in western classical music; my problem is with anyone retaining the definite article to this description whilst removing ‘…one of’, or indeed applying it to any other composer.
Those who think all fruit ripens with the strawberries know nothing of grapes.

Thanks for sharing this valuable collection
Ah Scarlatti interpretado en un piano moderno, que maravilla, que riqueza de sonido, profundidad y elegancia.
Incredible composer! Breathtaking to me..
Son tan perfectas que estrujan el corazón y lo expanden, hacia el noble territorio del espíritu, allá donde moran todas las sonatas.
gracias por la maravillosa experiencia auditiva 😁
I can listen to those sonatas day and night what an endless pleasure
One of my favorite composers. Thank you !
Just found this this morning. Thanks! What a wonderful treat! 6 hours of Scarlatti!!
Thank you for sharing this gorgeous music and helping to keep it alive!
Ha anticipato grandemente Bach, in più il suo talento ne fa un compositore moderno e gradevolissimo.
Senz'altro!

Thank you! Really enjoying this brilliant music. Sometimes I find myself holding my breath during a particularly complicated passage! Haven't even listened to 2 hrs yet, so I bookmarked it in case YT drops it from my notifications list.
Edit: Have now listened to the whole
We are glad you enjoyed this playlist! 😁
Maybee getting it together?
MAGNIFIQUE ET MERVEILLEUX
What impresses me is Scarlatti's technique and his natural skills and talent when performing. I co fess I had not heard him before. Amazing...
GENIUS
Thanks for sharing.
This collection is really special. You have curated a real gem here.
I bet you if Scarlatti was alive he would have been a metalhead
Gracias...es uno de mis artistas favoritos❤❤❤🌦🌦
merveilleux ! merci !
Most definitely inspired by the piano sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti. I love the ethereal spin! Your composition is a gift from the heavens. 🫶🏻
Nevjerovatno izvodjenje!Bravo maestro!👏👏💐❤️
I love how the trills are played
Yes, extremely precise and impressive
this way of playing them reminds me of Glenn Gould
@@PepitoMegaChocolato
I’m not sure Glenn Gould is a valid reference point for anyone playing Baroque keyboard music.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 From my point of view it is, scarlati reminds me a lot of bach, and bach is strongly associated with gould in my head. But from your point of view I would believe you that I may be talking nonsense
Love the upper notes sounded first.
Gracias amigo!
First time hearing Schmitt-Leonardy...very respectable Scarlatti. Thanks BCs. Of course the rest are equally excellent.
Thank you for this treasure!
Brilliant music indeed! Thanks for sharing. Also for the very long timestamps!
Splendid. I love old music. I love all your choices. Thank you
Scarlatti composed wonderful piano music. Most of his creations are difficult to play. He befriended Handel when H. Lived in Rome. He had a contest with Handel with no winner, however Handel won on the organ.
Scarlatti’s keyboard music was almost entirely conceived for the harpsichord, but does transfer extraordinarily well to the more modern piano as well.
The range of technical and musical difficulty of his 555 sonatas is enormous, there are sonatas that can be played successfully by very early grade pianists, up to those like K141 or K299 that are off the scale and best left to professionals.
Thank you for posting - this is a gem. Cheers from Australia.
C´est si beau! Merci.

Scarlatti: "They had trills on closeout at Walmart. What was I supposed to do, just LEAVE them there?"
Hilarious! Thanks!

If I can give a really good book to read while listening to this, it is "555" (555 for the 555 sonatas) from Hélène Gestern, a French writer
It is about an unknown and mysterious sonata which has been discovered.
It's a masterpiece, especially when the music hits you as the book is moving and interesting.
Here is the summary ;
"It was by undoing the lining of a cello case that Grégoire Coblence, the partner of a luthier, discovered an old score.
Was it written by Scarlatti, as he seems to think? But, scarcely deciphered, the score disappears, arousing crazy lusts. Five people, whose lives are intimately linked to the work of the musician, set out in search of the precious document without realizing that this desperate quest will change their lives for a long time.
Domenico Scarlatti, a brilliant composer with 555 sonatas, is the theme of this musical novel. Its enchanting music is the soundtrack."
Mi piace molto-molto Domenico Scarlatti simile compositore Italiano, nasque il 26/10/1685 il Palermo Sicilia e morte il 23/7/1727 il Madrid-monumento il Madrid (71 aeta).
Domenico Scarlatti è nato a Napoli.

Amici della musica ciao a tutti ,insomma non.propio a tutti ,tanto so ' che in mezzo c'è chi preferirebbe guardare tik tok sul cellulare ,battuta a parte ,Ogni tanto immagino la musica dentro un pentolone ,e sapere poi cosa c'è dentro ,in questo caso un autore di tutto rispetto Scarlatti , compositore neanche a dirlo Napoletano ,apro una parentesi ,il popolo napoletano anno per caratteristica tutto e il contrario di tutto ,le sue opere per cembalo sono proprio come e' il carattere e la personalità dei napoletani ,possono essere amabili ,cordiali ,vanitosi ,capricciosi ,di cuore ,gelosi ,ma anche presuntuosi ,folli ,gentili ,signori etc ,la loro maschera pulcinella ,gia ' la dice lunga ,queste sonate di carattere aperto ,brillante ma anche malinconico perché in fondo i napoletani sono anche questo , trasmettono tutte le sfumature senza tralasciare niente , perché poi accontentarci di una sonata x quando possiamo trovare in queste titti i tipi di sentimento ,dall'allegro ,allo spensierato ,al malinconico ,etc .poi sono belle da ascoltare e suonare .
