🇮🇹Muzio Clementi ： Trois sonatas for the pianoforte or harpsichord No.3 in B-Dur Op.8-3

This sonata was written by Clementi for the fortepiano or harpsichord, offering balanced Classical phrasing and contrasts between its themes. Its multiple movements have clearly distinct characters, with lively passages alternating with more songful ones as the music unfolds. In the faster sections, it is important not to rush the smaller note values and to keep the two hands clearly coordinated. In the slower passages, ornaments should be connected to the flow of the melody, with phrasing shaped as though it were breathing. Carefully graded dynamics, together with the light response inherent to the keyboard instrument and the tension created by harmonic changes, can make the overall structure even clearer.
