🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in B-Dur K.16 L.397

Within its concise design, this sonata conveys the clear momentum of keyboard writing along with subtle changes of expression. The two hands proceed in a conversational manner, while the accumulation of short phrases shapes the musical flow. Hearing the work as a binary form with repeats makes its overall structure and the contrast between its sections easier to follow. In performance, ornaments should not be rushed; it is important to preserve the direction of the principal line while using light, articulate phrasing. Rather than equalizing the volume of both hands, carefully adjusting the balance according to each voice’s role will bring out the music’s clean, lucid sonority.
