🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in C-Dur K.199 L.253

A one-movement sonata in binary form, this work makes effective use of the concise materials characteristic of Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas. Listening for the contrast between the first and second sections, as well as the flow created by repeated short motives and changes of register, helps clarify its structure. In performance, the quick movement of the notes should be kept clear and even, with a light exchange between the hands. Ornaments should not be played mechanically; they should be integrated naturally while preserving the rhythmic flow. Careful shaping of phrase endings and dynamic changes brings out the music’s vitality and transparency.
