About this concert

During the 18th century Neapolitan Pier Domenico Paradisi, also known as Paradies, tried, with varying success, to develop his operatic career. However, he is best known as a harpsichordist and teacher. His fellow Neapolitan Enrico Baiano pays homage to Paradisi with a selection from his volume of scintillating solo sonatas for harpsichord, which became popular throughout Europe.

About the performer

Neapolitan harpsichordist Enrico Baiano specializes in the music of his fellow Neapolitan Domenico Scarlatti, but also ventures into later repertoire, up until the present day. Together with Marco Moiraghi he published an edition of harpsichord sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti and also took part in two documentaries about this composer, made by Francesco Leprino. His CD recordings have earned him prizes including a Diapason d’Or and a Choc de la Musique. Enrico Baiano teaches at the Conservatorio Domenico Cimarosa in Avellino.
