“Seek not profundity in these compositions but rather artistic ingenuity and delight with the object of exercising freedom on the gravicembalo.” – this passage from the introduction to an edition of the sonatas from 1738 was intended to motivate piano students of all ages to become acquainted with Scarlatti’s wealth of compositions.
