ALVISE DE PIERO, 1 CD - 2024

Notes

This album is the second in Alvise De Piero's collection of Baldassare Galuppi's harpsichord sonatas. About the first volume, the following has been written:

"The nine Harpsichord Sonatas by Baldassare Galuppi, at their world premiere, excellently performed by Alvise De Piero, reaffirm the composer's heterogeneous nature in the wake of the circulation of ideas in an era devoted to the cosmopolitan Enlightenment." (Guido Michelone, Il manifesto)

"In terms of performance, harpsichordist Alvise de Piero takes pride in these works. His rhythm is always appropriate to the music, and his touch on the instrument can vary from firm to delicate. His register variations on this two-manual instrument serve the music and lend beautiful expression to Galuppi's often lyrical voice." (Bertil van Boer, Fanfare Magazine)
