D.Scarlatti's Keyboard Sonata, K.113 (L.345) in A major, with a theme-and-structure analysis and synchronized sheet music (score) Performance: Vladimir Horowitz (piano), 1981/11/01 Stereo (DDD), Metropolitan Opera House, New York City (Live Recording) Analysis, Score Editing, Synch: ScoreMan OVERVIEW Domenico Scarlatti’s Keyboard Sonata in E major, K.135 (L.224), is one of his most elegant and refined sonatas. Compared to many of his more flamboyant or percussive works, this piece feels lyrical, graceful, and almost intimate. Its flowing motion and cantabile character give it a calm, poised atmosphere, showing a gentler side of Scarlatti’s keyboard language. HISTORICAL CONTEXT K.135 belongs to Scarlatti’s long creative period at the Spanish court, where he wrote keyboard sonatas primarily for Maria Barbara. By this time, Scarlatti had fully developed his personal style, blending Italian lyricism with Iberian influences and keyboard experimentation. Unlike some sonatas that clearly evoke guitar strumming or dance rhythms, this one leans more toward a vocal, singing approach, reflecting Scarlatti’s background as an opera composer and his deep understanding of melodic expression. MUSICAL SIGNIFICANCE The sonata is in binary form, but its strength lies in the seamless flow of musical ideas rather than sharp contrasts. The E major key contributes to a warm, radiant sound, and the writing favors smooth scales, balanced phrasing, and gentle ornamentation. Technically, the piece demands refined touch and control rather than sheer virtuosity. Musically, it demonstrates how Scarlatti could achieve expressive depth with minimal means, relying on clarity, balance, and subtle harmonic movement.    • J.S.Bach's Masterpieces      • J.S.Bach - 6 Cello Suites      • D.Scarlatti - Keyboard Sonatas      • Mozart - 18 Piano Sonatas      • L. v. Beethoven's Masterpieces      • L. v. Beethoven - 9 Symphonies      • L. v. Beethoven - Piano Sonatas      • F. Schubert - Piano Sonatas      • F. Chopin's Masterpieces      • F. Chopin - 19 Mazurkas      • F. Chopin - 19 Polonaises      • F. Chopin - 22 Nocturnes      • F. Chopin - 19 Waltzes      • R. Schumann's Masterpieces      • F. Liszt's Masterpieces      • J. Brahms's Masterpieces      • P. I. Tchaikovsky's Masterpieces      • C. Debussy's Masterpieces      • M. Ravel's Masterpieces      • S. Prokofiev's Masterpieces      • S. Prokofiev - Piano Sonatas      • Piano Sonata Collection      • Piano Concerto Collection      • Violin Concerto Collection      • Suite Collection
