The award-winning Italian harpist Cristina Bianchi has been exploring the works of Domenico Scarlatti for many years, and on this album she demonstrates for the listener the inexhaustible wealth of his compositions. The programme's other titles are largely unknown, or rarely performed on harp Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's Twelve Variations on the Folie d'Espagne, for example, and the Harp Sonata by Germaine Tailleferre. There's also a real treasure in the Three Préludes by Alexander Baltin, a contemporary Russian composer. Stylistically, his very personal musical idiom reflects the great Russian musical tradition.
