Hank Knox has been hailed internationally for his “colorful, kinetic performances” (All Music Guide) which “abound in vitality” (Early Music America). Knox’s recording of Essercizi Per Gravicembalo, offers the listener a view into Scarlatti’s famously technically demanding work that was first published in 1739 in London, England.
Essercizi Per Gravicembalo, meaning “Exercises for Harpsichord” was composed with the intent of a study in technique, resulting in spectacular, virtuosic hand-crossing and octaval leaps throughout the piece.
