Life

Son of the famous Alessandro Scarlatti. As scholar of his father he made a couple of opera’s for Rome. Also he was conductor of the Sankt Peter. After some years he moved to the court of Portugal. There he had one of the princesses as student. When about 1729 she went to Spain to marry the future king, Scarlatti accompanied here. Domenico was a very good harpsichord and organ player. He wrote more than 500 sonata’s for the harpsichord. Also he wrote music for the church, e.g. a wunderful Stabat Mater.
