[Jose-ruwf]

[veot.]

So beautiful. I used to listen to Scarlatti often decades ago. Time to revisit!!!!

[PaisleyPatchouli]

This is effing ripping! Anna Schivazappa on the mandolin is a monster!

[MichaelFan]

Great piece and performance. The video is very jumpy. It seems like the videographer thinks that we have an attention span of no more than 2 seconds.

[leoreichel]

Einfach wunderschön! Mögen diese begabten Musikerinnen und Musiker ihre Begnadung auch in kommende Generationen weiter tragen.

[adhardino]

Who had the idea of cutting the video every few seconds? A nervous video editor?

[riverwildcat]

Truly delightful, and extremely well played. Ancient instruments lens a special ambience.

Wow! Don't think I've ever seen a 12-string guitar before in Baroque music. Sounds good.

Excellent performance! A deep dive further into early music and informed performance practice & interpretation is what keeps this music alive. Unfortunately in America, music study at the academic level is going in the opposite, and wrong, direction by embracing “music industry” study, which is nothing other than more dumbing down in academia. When even the College Music Society pushes for the dismantling of core academic music classes, such as theory, you know it’s bad.
Great music performances like this are more vital than ever! Thank you!

[davidevans]

Oh so beautiful, thank you and thank you to the musicians

THE SONATA IS PLAYED ON AUTHENTICAL musical INSTRUMENTS they are about 200 years old .
So can this composition be so special and original?

[viva]

Wow! quel magnifique Ensemble! et quel beau jeu Anna! :-)♥

[thesalopgardener]

Fantastic music, performed with great agility.
Utterly utterly shocking video.

[davidwright]

😊😊😊😊 the performance opens the musical versatility of playing needed for that period of music. Many thanks

[luigialbanese]

WoW !!! You guys are amazing!!! Bravo !!!

[adamsouza]

So much better than the late 19th century style bowl back, it’s weird how instruments go backward.

Complimenti per la difficilissima e virtuosismi esecuzione.
