🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in d-moll K.295 L.270

Scarlatti’s Sonata K.295 is a compact yet highly concentrated keyboard work in a single movement. Within its two-part design, in which the opening and closing sections create a contrast, concise figures and rhythmic motion unfold while the harmonic changes shift the sense of tension. Key points include the independence and balance of the hands, the natural treatment of ornaments, and finely controlled articulation. Rather than rushing the tempo, performers should attend to the direction of each phrase and the space around the rests; this clarifies the overlapping sonorities and brings out both momentum and expressive shading.
