🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in G-Dur K.470 L.304

This keyboard sonata makes a strong impression with its lively momentum and clear contours, reflecting Scarlatti’s distinctive style. It is a single-movement sonata in binary form: the short motives and figures introduced in the first section develop through changes of key, then return within different harmonic surroundings in the second section to unify the whole. Highlights include the dialogue between the hands, the flow of the rapid passages, and the forward drive toward the cadences. In performance, avoid pressing each note too heavily; maintain the spring of the pulse with a light touch and clear articulation. Ornamentation should be handled naturally without interrupting the flow, while attention to phrase direction and harmonic changes reveals the vitality and delicacy within the concise structure.
