Summary of This Book
This third volume is aimed at all those who wish to explore the rich world of Domenico Scarlatti's sonatas through a reference edition. You will find Sonatas K.104 to K.155, at the heart of a corpus that has become essential for keyboard players: brief, contrasting, often virtuosic pieces, blending rhythmic energy, harmonic daring, and characteristic traits inspired by dances and Iberian language.
Prepared by Kenneth Gilbert, this edition is part of a larger project encompassing the 555 sonatas, here presented in a version intended for the piano. The selection and organization work relies on two historically significant manuscript collections found in Venice and Parma, in order to offer a coherent and usable musical text for both study and performance.
This publication also retains certain annotations originally suggested by Ralph Kirkpatrick, whose "K." numbering now serves as an essential reference for navigating the work. A valuable choice for pianists who want to build a progression by numbers, compare the characters of one sonata to another, and refine their interpretation (articulation, ornamentation, rhythmic impulse) in a baroque repertoire as demanding as it is fascinating.
