Among Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this piece is memorable for its lively rhythmic energy and clear sense of motion. In a two-part, single-movement design, the material introduced in the first half is developed in the second, carrying the music forward through changes of tonality. The intricate figures and ornamental movement are especially effective when played lightly with crisp articulation. Listen carefully to the balance between the hands, shape the phrase divisions and cadences clearly, and preserve transparency without relying too heavily on the pedal.
