Domenico
Scarlatti, portret de Domingo Antonio Velasco (1738)
"A landmark in recording history, Scott Ross’s
award-winning survey of all Scarlatti’s 555 keyboard sonatas stands as a
fitting monument to the US-born, French-trained harpsichordist, who died in
1989, aged just 38”. As the New York Times observed, “Ross possesses all the
necessary virtuoso flair and stylish sensitivity to bring this exciting music
bounding to life,'' while BBC Music Magazine described the project as 'a heroic
achievement'."
“Un reper in istoria inregistrarilor, studiul premiat al
lui Scott Ross pentru cele 555 de sonate pentru claviaturi, sta ca o montare monumentala
pentru un clavecinist american prin nastere, antrenat in Franta si care a
decedat in 1989 la numai 38 de ani. “ Asa cum observa si New York Times “Ross
poseda toate cele necesare, un fler virtuos si o sensibilitate stilistica
pentru a aduce la viata aceasta muzica de hotar”, in timp ce BBC Music Magazine
descria proiectul ca “o realizare eroica”.
