| Added by magataganm, 20 Nov 2017 Pietro Domenico Paradies (also Pietro Domenico Paradisi) (1707 – 1791), was an Italian composer, harpsichordist and harpsichord teacher, most prominently known for a composition popularly entitled "Toccata in A", which is, in other sources, the second movement of his Sonata No. 6. His reputation is due to his music for the harpsichord, esteemed by music historians. His musical style was influenced by Alessandro and Domenico Scarlatti. Especially celebrated above all were his twelve sonatas for clavicembalo (London, 1754). The Toccata in A that is still played often today is an Allegro movement from his sonata VI in A major, which has established for itself a considerable discography, although there has been a revival of more of his music recently, at least regarding the keyboard sonatas. He was also the author of concertos for organ and for harpsichord, individual pieces for harpsichord, arias and cantatas. Source: Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pietro_Domenico_Paradies ). Although originally created for Harpsichord, I created this Arrangement of the Toccata from the Sonata in A Major (P 893.06 No. 2) Transposed to Cb Major for Concert (Pedal) Harp. | |||
