A pupil of the famous composer of his time Nicola Porpora, Pietro Domenico Paradisi (c. 1707 – c. 1791) gained a reputation through his teaching of singing and harpsichord. In 1754, he published a collection of twelve sonatas for harpsichord in London, which attracted the attention and esteem of connoisseurs. One piece took a particularly distinct course: it is the second movement of the fourth Sonata in A major, commonly known as “Toccata”, whose simplicity and joyful virtuosity captivated arrangers, conquered the world, and spanned the centuries. Henriette Renié (1875–1956), a renowned harpist and teacher who studied at the Paris Conservatoire, transcribed it for harp and masterfully drew on the instrument’s full range of timbres, sound effects, and tonal colours. / Date parution : 2025-11-18/ Répertoire / Harpe
