They have made many albums of 17th century music with Ricercar, and now they have come face to face with the cantatas of Alessandro Scarlatti, one of the greatest composers of the late Italian Baroque. Alessandro Scarlatti was the father of Domenico Scarlatti, the great keyboard musician and a leading figure of the Neapolitan school of music that would later take Europe by storm. His beautifully melodic songs, which convey the charm of the poems that elegantly describe the feelings of those in love, were much sought after by influential people throughout the Italian peninsula, and many examples remain, including masterpieces performed at the \"Accademia di Arcadia\" in Rome (an intellectual circle that included Corelli and Bononcini).
