Program note: I met Mana Tokuno last spring at a concert in Montpelier, Vermont. The Montpelier Chamber Orchestra, under the direction of Victor Rosenbaum, did the Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 3 with Mana as soloist. My work, "Seven Steps To Heaven," for string orchestra was also on the program. After the concert we all went to a local restaurant for a bite to eat, and Mana asked me if I would be interested in writing her a piano piece. I said, "Sure!!!" For years I have been a fan of Glenn Goulds recordings of the music by J.S. Bach. I am also a fan of the keyboard sonatas of Bachs son, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. To prepare myself for this work for Mana, I delved into the scores and recordings of these two awe-inspiring musicians/composers, in particular the Toccatas and Partitas of J.S. Bach. I wrote the entire work during a three-week stay at the American Academy in Rome, 2009-10. Tokuno Toccata is in five sections. 1) Prelude Fantasia!!! 2) Adagio molto cantabile! 3) Allegro molto 4) Largo molto cantabile!!! 5) Allegro Fuga a tre voci. Enjoy!!!Audio link.
