Le donne di buon umore

Le donne di buon umore

"Le donne de buon umore (The Good-Humored Ladies)" is a ballet arranged from sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti Vincenzo Tommasini. Written in 1917, the piece was based on a comedy by Carlo Goldoni; its plot concerns the diversions of a count, disguised as a woman, at a carnival. The ballet was later arranged into a suite for orchestra; this is in five movements:
*I:"Presto"
*II:"Allegro"
*III:"Andante"
*IV:"Tempo di ballo"
*V:"Presto"

The sonatas adapted for the ballet are L. 388, L. 361, L. 33, L. 209, L. 499, L. 463, and L. 385.
