| | Domenico Scarlatti - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | (Giuseppe) Domenico Scarlatti was born in Naples, Italy, the sixth of ten children and a younger brother to Pietro Filippo Scarlatti, also a musician. | | | Scarlatti's influence on late-eighteenth style may have been considerable, but he has always tended to be written into music history as an "outsider". | | | Most likely he first studied under his father, the composer and teacher Alessandro Scarlatti; other composers who may have been his early teachers include Gaetano Greco, Francesco Gasparini, and Bernardo Pasquini, all of whom seem to have influenced his musical style. |

| | Domenico was the sixth child (of ten) born to Alessandro Scarlatti, a highly successful composer mostly known for opera, and part of a larger clan of musicians. | | | Domenico was trained early as a musician and had the benefit of living in a household that featured not only his composer father, but constant visits by singers, instrumentalists, and impresarios. | | | Kirkpatrick: "The mysteries of Domenico's early life and his obvious domination by his father, both personal and musical, tempt interpretation in terms of modern psychology." Kirkpatrick resists this temptation, but goes on to note that it was not until after Alessandro's death that Domenico finally got around to marrying, at the age of 42. |

| | Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) |
| | Giuseppe Domenico Scarlatti was born in Naples on October 26th, 1685. | | | At these weekly concerts, Scarlatti met some of the greatest virtuosos and composers of his time, including Arcangelo Corelli and the young Thomas Roseingrave, who was later to play an active role in disseminating Scarlatti's music in England and Ireland by publishing the first edition of Scarlatti's Essercizi per gravicembalo (1738-1739). | | | Only with his departure from Italy after his father's death in 1725, did Domenico Scarlatti appear to have developed the style that has rendered him one of the greatest keyboard composers of the Baroque era. |

| | Domenico Scarlatti brought an original compositional approach to his harpsichord works, which stand at the center of his artistic achievement. | | | Like his father Alessandro, Domenico Scarlatti was a well-trained and professional composer able to write successfully for a number of genres. | | | While in Venice Domenico also became a friend of Handel's whose excellence as a harpsichordist matched Scarlatti's, although Handel surpassed him as an organist, a fact Scarlatti was happy to concede, commenting that he had never conceived the existence of such organ playing. |

| | When this was not forthcoming Domenico returned to Naples, where he tried his hand at opera before his father removed him in 1705 and sent him to Venice to try his luck there. | | | The seven operas Scarlatti wrote in Rome for Queen Maria Casimira were by no means failures, and his church music and secular cantatas contain much admirable music. | | | Although he continued to write vocal music, sacred and secular, the main works of his Iberian years are the remarkable series of keyboard sonatas, copied out in his last years and taken to Italy by his colleague, the castrato Farinelli. |

| | Domenico Scarlatti - the Sheet Music |
| | Scarlatti used what is now interpreted as a double-sided repeat bar (::) to end both the first and second halves of almost all of his sonatas. | | | In Scarlatti's time, a performer was expected to be as able a musician as the composer. | | | Scarlatti normally used a flat to cancel a key signature sharp, but a natural to cancel a key signature flat. |

| | Scarlatti flourish in his new environment and its influence is also evident in the numerous harpsichord works composed during this period. | | | Following the marriage of Maria Barbara to Ferdinando in 1729, Scarlatti accompanied his regal pupil to Spain. | | | Even with such early success, there existed considerable tension between Domenico and his father, an authoritarian figure who set out to micro-manage his son’s early musical career. |

| | Scarlatti, Domenico (1685 - 1757) |
| | Domenico Scarlatti wrote over 550 single-movement sonatas or 'Exercises' (Esercizi) for the harpsichord, making characteristic but innovative use of the instrument. | | | He is chiefly known for the large number of short sonatas he wrote for the harpsichord, many of them for his royal pupil and patron. | | | The Queen also had pianos in her palaces, and some of the sonatas may have been written with these early hammer-action instruments in mind.Scarlatti's earlier compositions included operas, oratorios and other vocal music. |

| | Most performers faced with the range and quantity of Scarlatti's music quickly choose a few pieces, display his at-times breathtaking technique, and interpret him as a capricious mannerist. | | | I have, however, strictly restricted the techniques I use to those that were available to Scarlatti on his instruments. | | | Here, I attempt the opposite - to present the overall stylistic development and cumulative achievement of a great musical colourist, on the instrument which was his canvas. |

| | The Keyboard Tuning of Domenico Scarlatti |
| | The tuning preferences of Domenico Scarlatti are particularly uncertain, since he was born and trained in Italy, but spent most of his career in Portugal and Spain, and did all of his significant composing while under strong Spanish influence. | | | Its use provides significant evidence that Scarlatti used French tunings of his period during the composition of his sonatas. | | | It alerted me to a match between French tunings of the period and his music that no one had suspected, and that stood up to musical judgement. |

| | Scarlatti’s known work ammounts to 555 compositions of which most are in a single tempo. | | | As an instrument it is as distant from the harpsichord as is a Steinway of our times. | | | They are short pieces which through a highly virtuous set of veritable musical fire-works bring to the fore a world of sensations, of realistic references and allusions which appear and reappear in kaleidoscopic fashion. |

| | Here, with the thorough musical grounding he brought with him from Italy and his own brilliance on the harpsichord, Scarlatti immersed himself in the folk tunes and rhythms of Spain, with their distinctive Moorish/Arabic and gypsy influences. | | | The instruments of Thomas Goff based on the English Kirckman tradition, have more tonal variety than any other harpsichord. | | | This period of 24 years would be the longest sojourn of his life and one of the most productive. |
