🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in Es-Dur K.253 L.320

This taut, single-movement sonata unfolds through an interplay of delicate motion and clear rhythm. Short motifs are passed between the right and left hands, creating forward momentum through repetition. In its concise structure of two sections, listening for changes of key and the return of motifs helps reveal the overall design. In performance, it is important to keep the ornaments and quick passages crisp while clearly distinguishing the individual voices. Rather than exaggerating the dynamics, a light touch and natural phrasing bring out the dialogue between the hands and the appeal of the musical detail.
