Domenico Scarlatti - 3 Sonatas. , K. 408, K. 1

K. 99 (0:00) K. 408 (3:33) K. 1 (7:00) Sheet music available on my website (the very same i’m reading from), thanks to all who purchased the last set. Also, the Schubert Impromptu sheet music is now available, arranged for two six-string guitars. All six Sonatas will be on audio streaming platforms soon. Sonata caught my attention when I heard a beautiful recording by Fou Ts’ong (piano). Originally, I didn’t think it would fit on the guitar very well, but to my surprise it did. The original key is C minor, which is possible with this arrangement if you capo the 3rd fret. When practicing it slowly, there are some haunting sections that remind me of something Thom Yorke would write. The great guitarist Isaac Bustos also has an amazing live video of this sonata you should check out. Sonata K. 408 came to me via a student who had seen a great video by Italian guitarist Christina Galieto. We embarked on arranging it togethe
