Excellent historic fortepiano replica, excellent performance
Wade Greene | San Francisco, CA United States | 10/11/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This recording is made on a replica of a 1726 Cristofori (AKA Cristofali, Cristofani) fortepiano, and makes use of an incredible expressive capability that is unavailable on modern pianos. I also find this recording much more expressive than music performed on the later Viennese fortepianos, that are more widely used in recordings. The performer, Luca Guglielmi, who has recorded baroque music on harpsichord and organ, brings a special sensitivity to the interpretation of early 18th century keyboard music.Of the composers on this recording, only Handel and Dominico Scarlatti are well known. The other composers (della Ciaja, Giustini, Marcello and Zipoli) provide delightful pieces which probably are of the gallant genre."
