🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata Fuga del gatto in g-moll K.30 L.499

Within its brief single movement, this sonata concentrates fugal writing, with voices pursuing one another, and the forward momentum associated with a sonata. The subject and its fragments appear in different voices, carrying the music onward through repetition and development. It is therefore important to preserve the overall flow while making each exchange between the voices clear. Crisp, lively articulation should form the basis of the performance; clearly articulating the ornaments and shaping the direction of each phrase through dynamic changes will bring out the work’s tension and wit.
