Remained manuscript for centuries, the Sonatas offered on this disc, almost all of which are first recordings, are an authentic representation of the multiform musical universe known to Pavona, a world whose sonata taste oscillated between the 'old' Scarlattian model, monothematic and bipartite, dear to the Venetian masters, and the 'new' two-theme sonata-form, already widely in vogue, especially in the Austrian area.
