Any impressive Scarlatti sonatas?

Featured Replies

Hey, guys. I have like a collection of 150 sonatas (by D. Scarlatti) but I dont know which one is good.. Can anyone suggest a really good Scarlatti piece (between k.1-k.150) that could impress some audiences?

Perhaps this one:

Scarlatti Sonata

A lot of the earlier sonatas (K. 1 - 150 included) aren't as flashy because Scarlatti was developing what would eventually become his mature musical language.

If you want, there's printable scans of all the sonatas here:

Sonata K. 159 in C is kind of showy.
