Leveranstid: Skickas vanligtvis inom 2-5 dagar
Owing mainly to the tireless efforts of the late Father Samuel Rubio and other editors in making his works available in print during the past forty years, Padre Antonio Soler is now justly regarded as the most important composer active in Spain during the second half of the eighteenth century. Spanish folk-song and dance elements, as well as virtuoso effects, such as repeated notes in the left hand against wide leaps and hand crossings in the right, feature prominently in the 150 Sonatas. Soler’s slow movements, for example the opening movement of the splendid Sonata Sonata No. 60 heard on this disc, contain some of his most heartfelt and poignant music. This is the last disc in Gilbert Rowland’s Naxos cycle of the complete Soler Sonatas for Harpsichord.
