🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in E-Dur K.264 L.466

This single-movement sonata in binary form is distinguished by its light sense of motion and clear interplay between the voices. Fine figurations and ornamental gestures unfold continuously, while the repetition and development of short motives create forward momentum. Paying attention to the cadences and changes of key in each section helps clarify the overall structure. In performance, the figurations should be kept even and articulate, with the exchanges between the hands made natural and clear. Ornaments should be played lightly so that they do not interrupt the flow; maintaining contrasts in dynamics and a clear sense of phrase direction brings out the vitality and delicacy within Scarlatti’s concise writing.
