(Dis)Arrangements 6. / Piano Factory 14.
Bach and Scarlatti on piano are intrinsically arrangements, music relocated to an instrument unanticipated by their composers. Some 19th and 20th-century composer-pianists found Bach and Scarlatti too spindly for the ivories. They added notes and fleshed out chords, and took other liberties such as composing new voices or adjusting harmonies.

Dear La Folia 12.
I don’t know that a month has elapsed in the past five years without periods of audiophile anguish over imaging.
