TOCCATA E CANZONE
for organ and piano
The combination of piano and organ is a very unusual one - both very individual and self-sufficient. When I was asked to compose some music for this fairly rare duet I was very reluctant but after continual pressure I accepted the challenge and in 1993 composed "Toccata e Canzone" - two very different movements. In the Toccata the piano dominates, but in the Canzone the organ takes the lead. There is no programme to this composition - I simply tried to capture the true character of these two very contrasting keyboard instruments. A.Tucapsky
