Jennifer Kim plays Sonata K27 by Scarlatti

Jennifer Kim plays Sonata K27, L449 by Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) on a classical guitar made by Yulong Guo at the Guitar Salon International showroom in Santa Monica, CA. This comes via their great YouTube Channel. A number of things I really like about Kim’s playing: Her terraced dynamics are amazingly controlled. Her tempo is very fast and yet she is able to bring out some of the melodic motifs very clearly and musically. I’ve posted her playing on the site many times and she continues to grow in virtuosity and musicality.
