Domenico Scarlatti à Seville (1990)

Overview

Scarlatti in Seville, a work that is part of the Opus series produced by Mildred Clary for the French National Audiovisual Institute where a series of performers talk about the musicians they play and the reason for their choice, jumps, insinuating much through the parallel montage, from the representation of the dark palace to a palm tree caressed by the wind in the Alcazar of Seville. And from there little more will be said about Scarlatti, whose signature we do not even know, but we will hear his music, mostly played by the German pianist Christian Zacharias, who will also talk about his obsession with the Italian composer's work.
