🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in c-moll K.129 L.460

Within its brief single movement, this sonata condenses a sense of tension and subtle changes of expression. The two sections proceed in contrast, and the repetitions help clarify the flow of the music. In passages where figures are passed between the hands, paying attention to the direction of each voice helps keep the texture clear. Ornaments should not be rushed; their relationship to the surrounding notes should remain distinct, while each short phrase should be played with a sense of breath. Rather than relying too heavily on the pedal, performers should bring out the music’s vitality and shading through clear articulation and natural dynamic shaping.
