Naples, city of keyboards - Pier Domenico Paradisi
During the 18th century Neapolitan Pier Domenico Paradisi, also known as Paradies, tried, with varying success, to develop his operatic career. However, he is best known as a harpsichordist and teacher. His fellow Neapolitan Enrico Baiano pays homage to Paradisi with a selection from his volume of scintillating solo sonatas for harpsichord, which became popular throughout Europe.
