Toccata

Published in vol. 18 of the Faber Early Organ series, edited by James Dalton, former organist at Queen's College, Oxford, where I studied. I sang in the concert at the old RCO building in London where the launch party for the completed series was held.

This is part of my organ alphabet - I is for Italy. As far as possible I've only used the original 1607 stops, but the 8 foot principal is more modern. For this performance I've also used the Ripieno, which includes the more modern Due di Pieno mixtures
