Handel vs. Scarlatti: A Duel
We've reached another challenge, a double musical duel between the celebrated George Frideric Handel and Domenico Scarlatti, a duel at the harpsichord and one at the organ... but who will win?
Historically, there are doubts about the outcome of the first challenge, but I hope Scarlatti's statement has dispelled any doubts.
