Toccata in G minor, performed by Fernando De Luca and recorded this year, in a complete collection of Pietro Scarlatti's toccatas at www.saladelcem....
Pietro Scarlatti's music was once largely forgotten and mostly unrecorded, despite the recognition his father, Alessandro Scarlatti and brother Domenico Scarlatti enjoyed. Early last year, I shared an old recording of one of Pietro's pieces from an LP I ripped, highlighting it as one of the few proper recordings available. Thankfully, Fernando De Luca has now recorded all of Pietro's toccatas.
The Toccata in G minor is an exciting piece, notable not only for its rarity but also for its unique fusion of influences from Pietro's father, Alessandro Scarlatti, and the prevalent galant style of the time. Showcasing experimentation and idiosyncrasy, this composition sets itself apart from other works of its era, much like the keyboard compositions of Alessandro Scarlatti.
