🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in d-moll K.5 L.367

Built from concise phrases and clear rhythmic patterns, this sonata moves forward through the interplay of short, responsive musical units. It can be understood as a single-movement keyboard sonata in two repeated sections. The exchanges between the hands and the conversational quality within the finely detailed passagework are among its highlights. In performance, ornaments and passing notes should be articulated clearly rather than blurred, with a light, crisp touch that preserves the music’s momentum. Shape each phrase with a clear sense of direction, and consider adding subtle variation of expression on the repeats.
