About

The story that is narrated here begins in Naples and after touching Venice, Madrid, Lisbon, London and Newcastle will close again - although, we are sure, in non-definitive manner - in South Italy. This story begins in 1685, annus mirabilis for the European music that will assist in a few months to the birth of three of its most important coryphaei: George Friedrich Handel, Johann Sebastian Bach and Domenico Scarlatti, who is precisely one of the main protagonists of our history. Domenico was born in Naples and was the son of Alessandro Scarlatti, famed Italian composer at the turn of the seventeenth and eighteenth centures. Domenico moved and worked throughout Europe where he found great loves, admirations and friendships to inspire his most famous works.
