🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in C-Dur K.159 L.104

Among Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this piece stands out for its lively momentum and bright sense of motion. In a single movement and binary form, it moves forward through the repetition and development of short motives, with scale passages, broken chords, and exchanges between the hands. A clear, even articulation is essential, while the phrasing should retain its direction without allowing the tempo to become rushed. Ornaments should not sound mechanical; when added with a light touch that preserves the meter, they enhance the music’s vitality and transparent sonority.
