HANDEL vs SCARLATTI - Organ Harpsichord Battle - La Folia
In this thrilling sequel to their legendary 1709 encounter, Maestro Händel and Scarlatti reunite for another musical duel. Last time, Scarlatti left Händel in awe of his skills on the harpsichord. Now, they face off once more, each showcasing their virtuosity on both the organ and harpsichord. Watch as they push their skills to the limit, improvising on the iconic La Folia theme-aptly named "Madness." Who will claim victory in this impressive display of musical skill?
Part I: ua-cam.com/video/UYOwuDbfRts/v-deo.html
This presentation is inspired by a scene from the film "God Rot Tunbridge Wells". The music played is an arrangement of variations on La Folia by Arcangelo Corelli (Opus 5, nr 12) and Alessandro Scarlatti.

  • @antheagrasselli9489
    @antheagrasselli9489 27 днів тому

    Well… we knew that the battle did not happen in the beginning with these type of instruments for sure; in any case the conclusion was that Händel at the time considered superior on the organ, and instead Scarlatti with the harpsichord… but after several hours of musical fighting though.
