🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in D-Dur K.490 L.206

Like many of Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this work passes short motifs from one voice to another, creating lively interplay between the right and left hands. Within its concise structure, in which the first and second halves respond to each other, recurring figures, harmonic shifts, and expanding registers provide variety. In performance, the smaller notes should remain clear and well articulated without losing the rhythmic momentum. Ornaments should be shaped naturally so they do not interrupt the flow; attention to hand alternation and phrase divisions brings out the transparent sonority and conversational character of the music.
