Domenico Paradies

Pietro Domenico Paradies (also Pietro Domenico Paradisi) (1707 – 25 August 1791) was an Italian composer, harpsichordist and music teacher, most prominently known for a composition popularly entitled “Toccata in A”, which is, in other sources, the second movement of his Sonata No. 6.

A reviewer of a modern edition of his sonatas, all first edited by the composer, noted in passing “Paradies (never Paradisi, it seems)” suggesting that Paradisi might be a modern adaptation.
