Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in F-Dur K.275 L.328

Scarlatti’s Sonata in F major, K. 275, L. 328, combines a concise design with singing lines and nimble keyboard movement. The material introduced in the first half is taken up in the second, which moves forward with subtle changes, giving the work a coherent two-part structure. In the ornaments and delicate passagework, avoid crowding the notes; preserve the direction and breathing of the melody. Clear exchanges between the hands and a restrained accompaniment bring out the dialogue between the voices and the supple shaping of the phrases. Natural inflection within a poised rhythmic framework leads to a transparent performance.
