About

Domenico Cimarosa (1749‐1801) was one of the best known composers of the Neapolitan School. He held several important musical posts throughout Europe (St Petersburg, the Emperor Leopold in Vienna) as a highly successful composer of operas. His best known work is the opera 'Il Matrimonio Segreto', which brought him universal fame.

Cimarosa’s output for the keyboard consists of a great number of sonatas - short, one‐movement works, charmingly melodious, witty and entertaining.

Pianist David Boldrini plays an early fortepiano, achieving a wide range of expression, from sweet murmuring to fierce brilliance.
