Composed by Alessandro Scarlatti. Arranged by Michael Bomier. Baroque,Sacred,Standards. Score and parts. 7 pages. Michael Butkus-Bomier #3543635. Published by Michael Butkus-Bomier (A0.862645).

The first sonata is faster-paced and has hand-crossing throughout. It was used as a showpiece early in the career of Arturo Benedetti Michaelangeli. Video of him playing this piece is on YT. The slower one was a favorite of Horowitz at the end of his career. Audio sample here is the fast one. Video of Horowitz is also up on YT. Both pieces were pedaled by these masters, and I use it as well!
Our editions favor the utmost in visual clarity, not for voices as in much counterpoint, but in simultaneous notes, such that the intervals are solid and not delineated as to each voice. The hand-crossings and clearly labeled, with NO clef changes, as some editions have. If your LH is UP, it's in the Treble Clef, along with the RH. Ideal pageturns ro ease of practise and performance.
