"Sonata in A minor K 149"(D Scarlatti) with smooth sound of Giulietti bassetti free-bass accordion

Here's my inaugural personal recording for the New Year of 2024. People are making this world ugly with war & violence. As true artists, let's counteract that by making beautiful music for everyone.I still don't have my standard accordion back from repairs yet, so this & the next post will have to be free-bass recordings. Canada is blest with cold winters & as I play the heaters are on full blast with -20 deg C (-4 Fahrenheit) outside. I remember when the late Alf Carlson adjudicated us here in Western Canada, he said "I wondered why I found so many excellent accordionists here in Canada, so I blamed it on the long winters!" So I'm taking advantage of that by staying indoors until the mercury rises & hits at least -10 degrees. This is one of Scarlatti's earlier sonatas &, as usual, contains all the ingredients of Domenico Scarlatti's very recognizable style. Repeated notes, unusual modulations and many sixteen-notes passages. Not a too complex one, in AB form, compared to other Sonatas, but surely a very elegant and refined piece of music. The daring appoggiaturas over the diminished 7th triad is a real "coupe de grace." Scarlatti triumphed over the heavy Baroque style with his characterful themes, natural cantabile melodies, and dance-like movements. I find that the accordion with its woodwind nuances helps a performer play with more expression the the harpsichord(too metallic) & piano(too "plunky." I hope & pray that you all have a very happy & creative New Year!
