Info for D. Scarlatti & A. Scarlatti: Violin Sonatas

Der Platz von Domenico Scarlatti in der Musikgeschichte des 18. Jahrhunderts ist sicherlich außergewöhnlich. Diese exquisite und phantasievolle Werkgruppe ist im vierzehnten Band von Scarlattis handschriftlichen Sonaten enthalten, die in der Marciana-Bibliothek in Venedig aufbewahrt werden. Obwohl sie als Klaviersonaten bekannt sind, zeigt die Forschung, dass sie höchstwahrscheinlich für die Aufführung auf der Violine konzipiert wurden - mehrsätzige Werke, die oft eine bezifferte Bassbegleitung aufweisen, schnelle Registerwechsel und zahlreiche Passagen, die besser für eine Violine als für ein Tasteninstrument geeignet sind, sprechen für diese Theorie. Dies ist auffälliges und virtuoses Violinspiel vom Feinsten.

As a Concertmaster or soloist he has collaborated with orchestras such as Il Complesso Barocco, Kammerorchester Basel, I Barocchisti, Cappella Mediterranea under the direction, among others, of Giovanni Antonini, Diego Fasolis, Ottavio Dantone, Riccardo Minasi performing on international stages such as the Berliner Philarmonie, the Théâtre des Champs-Elysees, the Wiener Musikverein, the Theater an-der-Wien, the Barbican Centre and the Wigmore Hall in London, the Liceu Theater in Barcelona, the Opera Royal de Versailles, the KKL Luzern, the Tonhalle in Zurich, the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City. ​

Since 2017 he is the Concertmaster of Rinaldo Alessandrini’s Concerto Italiano.

He has conducted Accademia Bizantina, Il Pomo d’oro, Academia Montis Regalis, the Jerusalem Baroque Orchestra and soloists including Vivica Genaux, Max Cenčić, Simone Kermes.

In 2017 Begelman released his second solo recording for the same label, “Sei Solo” with the complete recording of the Sonatas and Partitas by J. S. Bach, awarded among the Discos exceptionales of the Spanish magazine Scherzo.

His latest solo album “Le Nuove vie”, six Vivaldi virtuoso concerts accompanied by Concerto Italiano and conducted by Rinaldo Alessandrini, was released in June 2021 by Naïve as part of the prestigious Vivaldi Edition catalogue.
