Free Music Notes for Horowitz Plays Scarlatti

Free Music Review: Awesome performance - should have left off the extra tracks
Hit: 5 Stars

I bought this CD after watching Olga Kern perform several Scarlatti sonatas at a phenominal 3-standing-ovation concert. She hasn't recorded those sonatas yet, so this was the closest recording I could find.

The performance and the recording are both exceptional. I sampled just about every other performance of Scarlatti I could find on-line before picking this CD and was not disappointed. It is an older recording, so it's not quite as clean and hiss-free as a newer DDD, but it's still very, very good and Horowitz is so good you'll be mesmerized by the fast and flawless expression of some wonderful music.

This music is fast - very fast, and there's lots going on with different themes moving up and down and in and out. It's hard to believe this can be played with less than 3 hands. With Horowitz playing, you hear it all, and just go WOW.

There's a couple of extra tracks at the end of the CD which should have been left off - there's someone in the audience coughing, and it's distracting enough that I just skip these when listening.
