🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in C-Dur K.465 L.242

This single-movement sonata is marked by a lively sense of motion and a clear musical outline. The music unfolds through the exchange of short figures, while flowing notes and harmonic changes create vivid contrasts within a compact span. Shaping the progression with an awareness of the contrast between the first and second halves helps clarify the form. In performance, it is important not merely to play each note evenly, but to maintain the forward impulse of the beat and the direction of each phrase, without giving the decorative motion excessive weight. Balancing the volume between the hands and bringing out a light touch through clear articulation will highlight the sonata’s appeal.
