John Browning Plays Scarlatti
When John Browning went into the studio to record this collection of Scarlatti Keyboard Sonatas for the Musical Heritage Society, he said that one of the greatest challenges would be to choose the most ideal sonatas out of the hundreds Scarlatti composed for a one-disc recital. In the end, he chose 30 sonatas that displayed a variety of styles, shadings, textures and tempos. Though these works were originally composed for harpsichord, Browning makes them sound "at home" on a grand piano because he roots them in the core ideas of Baroque music. Each work is unique and interesting which results in a wonderfully fluid program in which one sonata flows into the next.
