ALVISE DE PIERO, harpsichord

172 pieces, 400 movements, three or more decades of composition: these are the factors that contribute to the corpus of keyboard sonatas by Baldassare Galuppi, known as "il Buranello." The indeterminacy of a specific instrument and the cultural influence of various European countries give his music a heterogeneous character, both formally and stylistically, reflecting the circulation of ideas common to the finest composers of the time. The sonatas presented here are from various sources and provide a sampling of the diverse compositional approaches of Il Buranello.
