Scarlatti Sonata in B minor K27 on harp (Lethicia Caravello)

Domenico Scarlatti wrote the timeless 555 Sonatas for hapsichord in the early 18th century. They are still played today all over the world time and again, and very much loved by classical music fans.
While Scarlatti did not write this sonata in B minor K.27 for harp, there are many transcriptions of it out there, I hope you like my own! Enjoy this Scarlatti to begin the weekend! ❣️🎵❣️🎵❣️

Fauré - Une chatelaine dans sa tour

“Chatelaine dans sa tour” is one of two solo compositions Gabriel Fauré wrote for the harp. The piece is a miniature based on the poem “Une sainte en son auréole” by the famous symbolist poet Paul Verlaine. Its intimate and romantic feel evokes an image of “courtly love,” a love from afar. 💝😇

The poem:

A Saint in her halo,
A Châtelaine in her tower,
All that human words contain
Of grace and love;

The golden note of a horn
In forests far away,
Blended with the tender pride
Of noble Ladies of long ago;

And then - the rare charm
Of fresh, triumphant smile,
Flowering in swan-like innocence
And the blushes of a child-bride;

A nacreous sheen of white and pink,
A sweet patrician harmony -
All these things I see and hear
In her Carolingian name.

Fauré - Une chatelaine dans sa tour

It has now been a full year since I last performed on a real stage with a real audience. I miss the vibrancy of of the stage and the joy of playing with other musicians! Let’s get those vaccines so we can go back to attending and playing in live concerts once again! 🎭🎵

I'd like to welcome you to my page with some J.S. Bach! 😊 As all harpists know, J.S. Bach, never really composed specifically for the harp, but that doesn't mean we won't play his wonderful music! 😉
This Prelude comes from a Suite for the lute, an ancient string instrument. It was transcribed for the harp by the French harpist Marie-Claire Jamet and ornamented by "moi"!
I hope you enjoy this short Prelude I love so much!
