Pieter Jan Belder (harpsichord)About
It may have been this early exposure to religious life that made the young Soler decide to spend the rest of his life in the church. He accepted various musical posts in the church, including organist at El Escorial. He became a novice there in 1752, deacon, priest and chapel master – the latter position after 1757. He was requested by King Carlos III to teach his two sons Gabriel and Antonio. Antonio was the more musical of the princes, and it was for him that Soler composed his 6 concertos for two organs.
Soler came into contact with Domenico Scarlatti, who was employed by the Royal Family and whose music was exclusive to the court and banned from performance outside of the palace. Soler’s 150 keyboard works (written for Prince Gabriel) are dazzling affairs, and test the harpsichords and fortepianos of the time to their limits. Although the influence of Scarlatti can be detected, these are truly Spanish works, and exude Iberian colour and rhythms.
