🇮🇹Domenico Scarlatti ： Sonata in G-Dur K.523 L.490

Among Scarlatti’s keyboard sonatas, this work stands out for its lively momentum and clear sense of dialogue. Built around a single-movement binary form, it develops as short motives and figures pass between the hands, while repetition brings changing degrees of stability and tension. Ornaments should be integrated without interrupting the melodic flow, and rapid groups of notes should remain even and clearly articulated. Listening carefully to the individual voices and allowing slight breaths at phrase endings and harmonic points helps avoid a mechanical effect, balancing classical poise with vivid forward motion. Avoid rushing the tempo, and use a light touch and restrained pedaling to preserve transparency of sound.
