🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in B-Dur K.57 L.S38

This keyboard sonata is marked by lively momentum and clear musical dialogue, characteristic of Scarlatti. Within its single-movement flow, short motives and figures pass between the right and left hands, while repetition builds momentum and brings changes of scene. The subtle ornaments and nuances of the leaps are also highlights. In performance, it is important to make the handoffs between voices clear, avoid an overly heavy touch, and maintain a steady sense of pulse. Rather than treating the ornaments mechanically, shape them according to the direction and breathing of the phrases to bring out a transparent sonority.
