Released on June 30, 2023, under the Da Vinci Classics label, this album is a testament to Cimarosa's enduring legacy in the world of classical music.
Spanning a total duration of 49 minutes, the album is a journey through a variety of moods and tempos, from the gentle Andantino of Sonata in A Minor, C. 2 to the lively Allegro of Sonata in A Major, C. 21.

The album begins with the Sonata in A Minor, C. 2, setting a contemplative tone that evolves through the subsequent pieces.
