| Extra Information
|
Published by Boivin and Le Clerc in Paris, this collection was contemporaneous to Essercizi per gravicembalo, though the exact year of publication is uncertain. The same publishers issued further volumes of Scarlatti sonatas, most with titles beginning with Pieces pour le clavecin; this Pieces choisies collection contains 12 sonatas selected from Pieces pour le clavecin Volumes 1 and 2, but it may have been the first volume published.
