In the English capital he met again a former pupil of his father’s: the viola da gamba player and composer Karl Friedrich Abel. It was for the latter’s father, Christian Ferdinand Abel, a member of the Coethen orchestra, that Johann Sebastian had composed his Suites for unaccompanied cello. In London Johann Christian joined forces with the son, Karl Friedrich, and founded a concert society. They were joint directors from 1764 to 1781, and Abel continued for a while after Johann Christian’s death. They gave a concert every week and, as Burney tells us, "as their own compositions were new and excellent, and the best performers of all kinds, which our capital could supply, enlisted under their banners, this concert was better patronised and longer supported than perhaps any one had ever been in this country; having continued for full twenty years with uninterrupted prosperity.’ Johann Christian was among the first to play the pianoforte publicly in London (June 2, 1768). He and Abel thus presented themselves as performers and composers at the same time. When the eight-year-old Mozart arrived in London in 1764 he found Johann Christian concert director, harpsichord teacher to Queen Charlotte, accompanist to the King (who, like Frederick the Great, played the flute), and music master to the royal children. Mozart listened with all his ears to the new compositions of the two German masters who were then setting the tone of English musical taste, and even copied some of them out. (It is known that the Symphony in E flat major, K. 18, formerly attributed to Mozart, is actually by Abel.) Several sets of works have come down to us in which Johann Christian employs wind instruments, sometimes alone and sometimes in combination with strings. Opus 11 — six quintets for flute, oboe, violin, viola, and bass — was published by Welcker in London about 1776. The Quintet in D major, Op. 22 has the same instrumentation. Other works include a Quintet in F major for oboe, violin, viola, cello, and harpsichord, four wind quintets published in Dublin after the composer’s death and known as Military Pieces, and six Sinfonias for two clarinets, two horns, and bassoon usually regarded nowadays as arrangements. Mrs. Papendieck’s diary recounts an episode in Johann Christian’s life about 1776. "John Bach’ was in the habit of playing every Thursday at her house with the Queen’s chamber musicians, and he and Abel would take turns to compose something for these gatherings. One day, having forgotten that it was his turn, Johann Christian sat down before dinner and composed "a ravishing first movement for a quintet in E flat major"; two copyists wrote out the parts at his dictation as the work proceeded. This was the origin of the fourth Quintet of Opus 11. The completed set was dedicated to Karl Theodor, Elector Palatine at Mannheim, where Johann Christian had enjoyed a real triumph with his Temistocles in 1772, and where he presented Lucio Silla in 1776. The dedication of the Quintets read as follows: "Your Highness’s benevolent approval of my efforts at Mannheim has given me infinite satisfaction. Music and the fine arts, supported by your favor and guided by your taste and the thoughtful strength of your judgment, flourish there with unsurpassed vigor. Your Highness’s new command gives me the greatest joy. I am also eager to offer Your Highness this modest token of my constant gratitude for the consideration you have been pleased to accord me.”

Simone Stella plays the Sonata in D major K. 492 of Domenico Scarlatti +••.••(...)), a piece containing a considerable spanish influence. The harpsichord used is an italian model made in 2016 by Roberto Marioni from Pietrasanta (Lucca, Italy). #baroque #music #harpsichord #simonestella Only a fraction of Scarlatti's compositions were published during his lifetime; Scarlatti himself seems to have overseen the publication in 1738 of the most famous collection, his 30 Essercizi ("Exercises"). These were well received throughout Europe, and were championed by the foremost English writer on music of the eighteenth century, Charles Burney. The many sonatas that were unpublished during Scarlatti's lifetime have appeared in print irregularly in the two and a half centuries since. Scarlatti's 555 keyboard sonatas are single movements, mostly in binary form, and some in early sonata form, and mostly written for the harpsichord or the earliest pianofortes. (There are four for organ, and a few for small instrumental group). Some of them display harmonic audacity in their use of discords, and also unconventional modulations to remote keys. Other distinctive attributes of Scarlatti's style are the following: The influence of Iberian (Portuguese and Spanish) folk music. An example is Scarlatti's use of the Phrygian mode and other tonal inflections more or less alien to European art music. Many of Scarlatti's figurations and dissonances are suggestive of the guitar. Scarlatti's compositions were influenced by the Spanish guitar as can be seen in notes being played repetitively in a rapid manner. A formal device in which each half of a sonata leads to a pivotal point, which Kirkpatrick termed "the crux", and which is sometimes underlined by a pause or fermata. Before the crux, Scarlatti sonatas often contain their main thematic variety, and after the crux the music makes more use of repetitive figurations as it modulates away from the home key (in the first half) or back to the home key (in the second half). Scarlatti played in the galant style.

His music was influential in the development of the Classical style and he was one of the few Baroque composers to transition into the classical period. Like his renowned father Alessandro Scarlatti, he composed in a variety of musical forms, although today he is known mainly for his 555 keyboard sonatas.
