🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in G-Dur K.477 L.290

Light, agile motion and clear dialogue drive the piece forward. The right and left hands pass short motifs between them, while repetition and changes of register create a sense of momentum. In its two-part structure, the material from the first section returns in altered form, creating both continuity toward the second section and a sense of contrast. In performance, it is important to keep the details of the right hand crisp while maintaining a steady pulse in the left hand. Rather than rushing through the ornaments, shaping the direction of the notes and observing the phrase divisions will bring out the music’s transparency and vitality.
