🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in B-Dur K.442 L.319

This sonata is marked by a lively sense of motion and streams of sound that move swiftly across the keyboard. Within its concise structure, in which the first and second halves respond to one another, recurring figures and shifts of register create a strong sense of momentum. The clarity of the rapid passages and the light breathing at the ends of phrases are particular points of interest. In performance, keep the fingertips supple and the parts together, while maintaining clear articulation that does not sound mechanical. Ornaments should be played naturally, without interrupting the flow; carefully shaping the direction of each phrase and changes in resonance brings out the music’s fresh vitality.
