Please help to identify this piece.

May i ask this group for looking for a piece (baroque era), that appears in ABRSM grade 5 or 6 quite a few times in the past.
It is in A major.......(quite like a 2-part invention)..... attributed to Paradiso and also to Scarlatti.......
I knew there is a second on E.....
I am dying from wanting to know the title....
It stated with a left hand A, then right hand will play A-g#-A-E-A-C*-E-A. . Then, like a two part inventions, the left hand mirror the theme.
Please help to name this piece.

e.g.
Actually, my memory fails me...... (whether Paradies or Paradiso)..... i taught the piece in 1980s, 1990s, when i was still teaching ABRSM graded exams.......
Anyway, this sonata - second movement is not the piece......
It was Telemann/Bach - Suite in A major


but i distinctly recall it was by Paradis* in ABRSM official piano exam books.

Also sometimes called Paradisi, but not Paradiso.
