Elisa Netzer - Hodel, Khachaturian, Maayani, Mortari, Paradisi, Rota, Scarlatti, Turina: Toccata

The term �toccata� is associated with virtuoso music demanding the utmost dexterity of its performer. Elisa Netzer, winner of the 2015 �Suoni d�arpa� International Harp Competition in Italy, presents a wide-ranging programme which includes her own arrangement of one of Alessandro Scarlatti�s harpsichord toccatas, popular pieces such as Khachaturian�s Oriental Dance and Toccata, original works for harp such as Nino Rota�s attractively neo-Classical Sarabanda e Toccata and the premiere of the brand new Toccare composed for her by Swiss composer Stephan Hodel.
