6 Harpsichord Sonatas, op. 1
Album by Baldassare Galuppi & Andrea Chezzi
6 Harpsichord Sonatas, Op. 1 is a set of six harpsichord sonatas by Baldassare Galuppi, published around 1738. The works are in the galant style associated with the early Classical transition, with clear textures and balanced phrasing, and they are among Galuppi's earliest published keyboard pieces that show his shift from Baroque counterpoint toward a lighter, melody-led approach in mid-18th century Italian keyboard music.
First released: January 2016
