This collection completes the 27 sonatas by Padre Antonio Soler which make up his contribution to the Fitzwilliam manuscript. Nos. 1-15 are available on Naxos 8.572515. These bipartite sonatas contain prime examples of Soler's theories of modulation, from elegantslow' passing between notes to'agitated' extremes of contrast. The result is constant surprise, both in spectacular technique and expressive depth. Award-winning pianist Vestard Shimkus has been described as'a phenomenon' (conductor Paavo Jarvi),'superb' (American Record Guide) and'inspired' (BBC.co.uk website).'
