🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in C-Dur K.356 L.443

Within a concise two-part structure, short motifs are passed between voices to shape the musical flow. Clear rhythms and delicate movement create a lively character, while changes in register and harmony invite attentive listening. Keeping the contrast between the first and second sections in mind makes the overall structure easier to grasp. In performance, avoid rushing through the smaller notes; instead, maintain the pulse, organize the individual voices, and allow the decorative movement to emerge naturally. Rather than exaggerating the dynamics, aim for clear articulation and a light, flexible sense of phrasing to bring out the sonata’s appeal.
