🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in B-Dur K.267 L.434

This sonata condenses the concise structure and agile movement that are characteristic of Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas. The music unfolds as short motives are passed between the voices, while exchanges between the hands and delicate passages give the flow its momentum. In each section of the two-part form, the repetitions help clarify the musical outline and bring out the changes in character. In performance, it is important to avoid connecting the notes too heavily, maintaining clear articulation and a steady pulse. Treating ornaments and details naturally without rushing, and paying attention to phrase direction and contrasts in dynamics, will bring out the work’s lightness and expressiveness.
