Marie-Luise Hinrichs (piano)
Spanish composer Padre Antonio Soler is most celebrated for his keyboard sonatas, writing over 120. They have been compared to those of Domenico Scarlatti, who it is assumed he probably studied with. Some of his sonatas are reminiscent of the dance music of Spain, shown not only in their abrupt, immediate juxtaposition of keys and typical Spanish rhythms but also in the many ornaments in the tradition of Castilian and Catalonian folk music.
Marie-Louise Hinrichs has long been fascinated by these works and for the first time on CPO presents a sensational interpretation of Soler’s sonatas.
