🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in D-Dur K.23 L.411

Among Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this work is distinguished by its clear sense of motion and finely detailed figuration. It is a single-movement sonata in binary form, with both the first and second sections repeated; the exchange of figures and changes of register shape the musical flow. Ornaments and rapid passages should be played with even articulation while retaining a lightness that avoids sounding mechanical. Listening carefully to the two hands and attending to phrase direction and harmonic changes will help create a transparent and expressive performance.
