Pierre Hantaï
The 555 keyboard sonatas by Domingo Escarlate - the Iberian alias of Domenico Scarlatti - have captivated the music world for more than three centuries. They were certainly groundbreaking, these contrapuntal masterpieces which stubbornly refuse to be reduced to formulas or standard recipes. Pierre Hantaï tracks down echoes of Spanish folk songs in this collection of quirky time capsules.
