Scarlatti Sonata Kp. 535

on: April 13, 2007, 11:49:45 AM

Yes, it's the one everybody played for their ABRSM G8.
In D major.
I apologise for the muffled sound - I was trying to get rid of background sound by putting it under a quilt, but it sounds a bit horrible.
I played it two years ago for my G8, but just thought I'd have a play of it. So I might polish it so that I can play it with a contrasting D minor slow sonata for my dipLCM.
If you know of any nice slow Scarlatti D minor sonatas, please let me know.
Thanks,
Tom

is K 516 d minor? i think also, K 9. but, since you are dealing with higher numbers - maybe the style is more similar with a higher number? i really haven't played anything past K 119. i paired that with K 9.

didn't scarlatti sort of pair his own at one point. is that more with the longo numbers - or is this my imagination? i though bernhard wrote about this somewheres - and had a list of paired sonatas. it was helpful.
