Celebrated for her glorious traversals of 19th and 20th-century Spanish piano repertoire, on this recording Alicia de Larrocha harks back to the Baroque, offering a selection of sonatas by Scarlatti as well as the much lesser-known ones of his contemporary (and her compatriot) Soler. Sandwiched between is her recording of the fifth of Handel s keyboard suite, with its celebrated Harmonious Blacksmith variations. This issue forms part of a survey of Larrocha s celebrated Decca recordings, with some of them (on this issue, the Scarlatti sonatas Kk. 8 and 10) appearing on CD for the first time. Six of the Soler sonatas appear from Larrocha s Scarlatti/Soler recording, with a further two (tracks 18 and 19) from a recital of Spanish encores.
