Toccata for piano solo (1994)

Posted on July 31, 2012August 1, 2012 by Jay Batzner

This is my first “keeper” composition. A simple aggressive ostinato provided the inspiration and motivation for the work. Even though this toccata is only about two minutes long, there is a brief break in the motoric energy for a more lyrical moment. Finally, a mad dash towards the end and an explosive finale.
