ATHENE RECORDS

A CLASSICAL MUSIC RECORDING COMPANY

New Release - JOANNA LEACH

Divine-Art release Athene CD23025
16 Scarlatti Sonatas

Klassik Magazin:
"In comparison with well known recordings of illustrious colleagues, the thoughtful balance of Leach's playing is striking...... opening up a new vision of the compositions..... she meditates over these sontatas, like Glenn Gould did in his late recordings of the Goldberg Variations. No note is played in haste, no repeat is meaningless. Comparable to acknowledged reference recordings, her interpretations present these Scarlatti sonatas free from artificial drama or even technical awkwardness. The only regrettable thing is that Joanna Leach has not recorded the other 539 sontatas."
