description
Padre Antonio Soler must surely be one of the most original keyboard composers of the 18th century. The few surviving details of his life – including his eventual isolation in the El Escorial monastery near Madrid – have up until recently drawn a veil over his music; only now is he being discovered, with releases like this paying tribute to his extraordinary output. Soler’s love for the solitude of his cell certainly bore fruit: he composed an astonishing 471 works throughout his 30-year career, and the strictness of his monastic environment seems to have left no trace in his compositions. On the contrary, cheerful jollity and a sunny, playful disposition characterise his music. Soler’s style is on the one hand firmly rooted in the Spanish polyphonic keyboard tradition of Cabezón, but on the other hand there is the clearly discernible influence of Italian instrumental music of the time, as musical taste changed rapidly from a Baroque style into the more galant and Classical style. His music also often harks back to the Spanish folk music tradition giving it a typically Iberian colour.
