Twenty Sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti Piano Solo - Sheet Music
By Domenico ScarlattiDomenico Scarlatti's fame rightly rests on the hundreds of keyboard sonatas, nearly all in the same binary form, in which he gave free reign to his imagination. In these sonatas he explored new worlds of virtuoso technique using such devices as hand-crossing, rapidly repeated notes, wide leaps in both hands, and countless other means of achieving a devastating brilliance of effect. Twenty of these sonatas are compiled in this folio written for solo piano. Audiences will be amazed at these stunning works by this great keyboard composer.

There is no detail or organization here. The K numbers and the titles with key signatures are not even listed (as in Sonata in F minor, K. 466). You literally have to start playing the piece to even know what it is! No table of contents, either. No fingering suggestions, nothing. You are totally flying blind, if you buy this.

I bought this thinking it is the same wonderful edition I have from my childhood, the nice green-covered Kalmus edition. However, this new edition looks like someone photocopied the old pages with too much ink and slapped them into a white cover. Not cool! So: five stars for content, zero stars for appearance.
