🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in B-Dur K.311 L.144

Among Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this piece is especially memorable for its concise motives and clear rhythmic motion. Its structure unfolds through contrasting first and second sections, while exchanges between phrases and changes of register give the music a strong sense of momentum. A particular point of interest is the way short figures are varied as the piece progresses, with ornaments and repetitions adding greater expressive detail. In performance, it is important to keep the voices in both hands clearly organized and to maintain a light, crisp articulation. Ornaments should be played naturally and quickly enough not to interrupt the flow; careful attention to dynamic contrast and phrase direction will bring out the sonata’s transparent sonority.
