Published by Anastasio Rossi (A0.1425169). Performance Notes: Toccata is a musical form, usually for keyboard instruments, written in a free style that includes brilliant passagework characterized by fast tempos, rapid notes and runs, intricate thythms, complex harmonies, and other virtuoso elements designed to show off the performer’s skill and dexterity. This miniature toccata for piano features a single persistent staccato note, repeated by the left hand, while the right hand continually crosses over the left to play the melody above and below the repeated note. Since the staccato element is a feature of the music, pedaling is not used, except at measure 50.Set the metronome at a slow tempo for learning: quarter note =70, and much higher for performance: quarter note = 100 - 250. The faster it is played, the more impact it has on the listener!Anastasio Rossi..
