🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in D-Dur K.21 L.363

This single-movement keyboard sonata by Scarlatti develops concise motifs through finely articulated motion and resonant chordal writing. Its opening and closing sections unfold in contrast, while the exchange and repetition of short phrases create a strong sense of momentum. In performance, clarity and evenness of touch are essential, together with a light, agile rhythmic feel. Ornaments should be integrated naturally without interrupting the flow, and careful attention to balance between the hands and the direction of each phrase will bring out the music’s transparent character.
