Notes

Giorgio Dellarole, accordion. Original compositions by Domenico Scarlatti. 24bit/96Khz digital recording made at Magister Studio, Preganziol, Treviso, Italy, on March 10 – 12, 2006. VLHD HIGH DEFINITION

This is an album that will not leave anyone indifferent: a great virtuoso of the classical accordion has in fact decided to reinterpret some famous sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti with this instrument, applying an interpretive style to the accordion based on the most consolidated baroque practice. The result deserves more than one listen to appreciate to what extent the spirit of contamination based on very rigorous musicological criteria can offer new interpretative insights into well-performed and known pieces. Top-quality recording.
