Domenico Scarlatti ; Alessandro Longo.
No Linguistic Content View all editions and formats. Sonatas Piano Sonatas Harpsichord. Opere complete per clavicembalo, edited by Alessandro Longo It is included in the ninth Venice volume of It is included in the tenth Venice volume of As it proceeds it moves to a passage of modulation, exploring remoter keys, and continuing into the second part of the sonata.
It is marked Allegro and after the opening passage moves forward into modulations that reach their destination of G major, as the repeated first section comes to an end, duly returning to the original key in the second part of the sonata.
Marked Allegro , it is characterized by a short rhythmic figure often repeated. The lower second voice enters in imitation of the first at the beginning of the sonata and the opening motif returns in an unusual key to open the second half of the sonata. The flow of the second part of the sonata is suddenly interrupted on three occasions by silent bars, after which due modulation proceeds.
It starts with a descending figure, and in its second section explores dramatic minor keys. The second part enters in imitation of the first in a sonata that explores a full range of the keyboard.
Relatively simple in structure, the melodic interest is principally in the right hand throughout. Marked Non presto , the sonata involves hand-crossing and has a number of passages of trills. Marked Allegro , it again brings passages of handcrossing and makes continuing use of figures of descending octaves. It is a work of almost perpetual motion and includes a number of changes of key signature. It is characterized by a use of pedal-point.
