🇮🇹Muzio Clementi ： Six sonatas for the pianoforte or harpsichord No.4 in A-Dur Op.2-4

Clementi’s Sonata No. 4 is a poised and approachable work that makes the most of the bright, expansive sonority of A major. Across its several movements, clear themes, delicate figuration, and exchanges between melody and accompaniment create contrasting character, inviting the listener to appreciate the individuality of each movement. It is important to keep the voices clearly balanced and allow the melody to sing. Maintaining light, lucid articulation, evenness in the figuration, and natural shaping of phrase direction and dynamic changes brings out the Classical sense of balance and momentum.
