🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in c-moll K.37 L.406

Among Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this piece builds a sense of tension and release through a succession of concise phrases. Its two-part form presents a contrast between the first and second halves; listening for recurring motives and shifts of key makes the overall structure easier to grasp. Do not rush the ornaments: shape them so that they clarify the direction of the melody, and keep the exchanges between the hands distinct. Rather than relying on lightness alone, carefully observing rests and note values brings out the music’s poised flow and expressive character.
