Toccata on Aberystwyth - Christopher Maxim [Johannus LiVE III AGO]

The hymn tune "Aberystwyth" is often sung to the Lenten hymn "Jesu, lover of my soul" and is here used as the basis for a stunning toccata, albeit one which fulfils the composition brief of being accessible to organists able to play around Grade 6 standard. This piece is included in the first volume of Sortie Sorted, published by @ChurchOrganWorld. To order, click this link:

It is played on a Johannus Live III AGO organ, using the sample of the Cavaillé-Coll organ in Église Notre-Dame d'Auteuil, Paris. The sample sets can be heard from four positions: console, front of the church, centre of the church, rear of the church. This recording uses the rear of the church position.

Christopher Maxim Congrats! This toccata is outstanding, thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing the score when Vol. 1 is published. northernorganist the Cavaillé-Coll sample set is wonderfully exciting, as is the playing. Love it!!

It is such a good piece; I absolutely love it.

[@ChristopherMaxim]

Thank you for another superb performance of my music, Steven. You have captured brilliantly exactly the mood and colour of this piece.

[@northernorganist]

Very many thanks for your kind words; much appreciated. I absolutely love the piece and will certainly be using it again in the future. I felt that the Cavaillé-Coll sample suited it perfectly, even if that meant no solo reed!
