Volume III of this critically acclaimed three-part collection features introductory text and performance notes to 30 Scarlatti sonatas, from Sonata LXI to Sonata XC. The works appear in chronological order and with Kirkpatrick numbers. This Urtext edition preserves the sonatas' original presentation, save for the addition of accidentals and the inversion of treble and bass clefs, in accordance with modern practices.

I AM NOT REALLY THE ONE TO ASK. I PURCHASED THESE TO READ THE PREFACES. THE SCORES ARE TRUE TO THE MANUSCRIPTS. & ONE CANNOT ASK FOR MORE THAN THAT.
everything is beautiful and professional here: the composer's masterpieces, both as music and as didactic material, the editor's rendition, a thousand times more relevant to the modern pianist than the revered longo edition, the critical reviews (with many facsimiles), the typography and layout, paper quality and binding, the amount of material chosen for binding in three volumes (just right, well, with apx. 130 pages per volume perhaps it might as well be fine in two volumes, but it's ok, and also seems that everyone has the right to pay their rent.).scarlatti is a genius and a darling. his music is so refined and personal, for me -- in the same club with bach, mozart, haydn, and chopin. in some places also beethoven.and his pianistic techniques are a treasure. most of them you simply cant play both fluently, expressively, and technically satisfying unless you use the most subtle balancing of pelvis, torso, shoulders, arms, hands, fingers, breathing, soul, mind, and cosmic energy.seems he is also poetically inspiring.plus shcirmer's kirkpatric edition of 60 sonatas is also great, and at least most of the pieces are not the same as here. I bought them in 1 volume but now I see them in 2. is the 1 volume edition still available? with more than 250 pages 80 gr paper it's a bit on the bulky side, but very solid binding, it can be tamed.
