Toccata Festivo

Toccatas traditionally offer pianists truly exciting recital fare, and this new toccata by Jennifer Linn lives up to that promise. Challenging, but always within reach for aspiring young pianists, this is a great easier, sounds hard piano solo sure to garner audience applause. Alternating-hand eighth notes are featured throughout at a vivace tempo, but always within a 5-finger hand position that shifts registers up and down the keyboard.
