Volume 4 (S/O 2016) was so good, it impelled me to go buy the boxed reissue of volumes 1-3, available at a budget price. The new Volume 5 continues this winning formula. The sonatas this time are K 28, 87, 124, 157, 205, 211, 238, 252, 253, 277, 388, 401, 474, 475, 547, and 551.

If there is a theme here, I notice that many of these sonatas have figures of repeated notes in the right hand. Hantai is at his best in the fast sonatas. As I wrote to characterize volume 4, played on the same harpsichord (by Jonte Knif): “Hantai’s performance manner keeps tempos basically steady, filling the space with small expressive nuances on top of a “hot” touch where he plays the notes very short.” This works very well for Scarlatti’s music. The sound and the booklet notes are again excellent.
