: "Cadence frigienne" is (for me) when the b line goes I-VII-VI-V in natural minor(for example:A-G-F-E)with the chords that correspond(V must be major)! For me, this is the most beautiful combination of harmonies(sounds so "antique"!). Scarlatti uses it A LOT(no wonder, I'd say that all spanish music is "BASED" on it)! Many composers liked it and used it very much(even Bach!-VERY much)-up to Rachmaninoff!

Yes, K 223 is a wonderful piece. Those chord changes are very popular indeed(see K 27), even in today's contemporary music (example - Fever, Sixteen Tons, All Along The Watchtower, etc.)
Speaking of chords, I'm working on K 215 and here the main course is suspensions. The chords are purposely left unresolved as a theme (I and V played together), and in the second part the heavy handed dissonances are remarkable, only to be answered by light, airy, open chords that are totally refreshing. Listening to this piece, I thought of Brahms,Debussy and Ravel.
Boy, I love Scarlatti.
