🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in F-Dur K.274 L.297

Among Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this piece stands out for its concise themes and finely detailed motion. It is a single-movement work that can be understood as a two-part structure, with the first and second halves responding to one another. Listening for the changes in character created by thematic repetition and modulation reveals how the music expands from a small amount of material. Ornaments should flow naturally as part of the melody rather than interrupting it. Clear distinction between the hands, together with evenness and lightness in the quick passages, helps bring out the music’s transparent character.
