Welcome to Alberti's music world American Concert Alliance published the album of eight sonatas for piano  by Domenico Alberti (ca.1710 – 1740). We believe that the album, originally written for the cembalo,  was never copied since mid of the  XVIII century.  Most of us, who have been practicing piano since young age, learned Alberti’s name even before Mozart’s or Beethoven’s. His place in music history is firmly secured by the accompaniment device named after him – Alberti’s Bass. And for most of us, that is all we know about his contribution to music. For piano performers, Alberti always appears in someone else’s shadow – of Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, et al. But  in his time Alberti  was one of the most significant heralds for the Classical Era. His innovations in music were adapted  by de Rossi, Paradies, J.C.Bach, Rutini, J.Haydn, Clementi,  Beethoven.   In fact, young Mozart modeled his first violin sonatas on Alberti.   We hope that original Alberti’s music would be interesting to professionals as well as to amateur musicians. “ It’s a wonderfully printed book with excellent edition…” -   Prof.  Marcella Crudeli (Roma,Italy) “This prize of captured golden sunlight of seventeen hundred Italy provides the intermediate level amateur pianist, young or older, access to musically rich and rewarding pieces, while allowing the advanced player to reveal more subtle facets. The music lover and musicologist alike are indebted to the editors, George and Boris Borisov, for bringing Alberti’s influential compositions to the attention of the general public.”   -   Dr. James Manganaro (Princeton, USA)    Alberti’s sonatas  are distributed upon personal request from the Golden Key Festival supporters.
