What could be cuter than a cat that likes to hide in the food pantry? This charming piece, which includes an optional duet part, is a good reinforcement for the key of F major. Hands are in almost Middle CÂ position (L.H. thumb on Middle C, R.H. thumb on D). Mostly hands alone playing and R.H. has a crossover to Bass C. Darling lyrics tell the story of this real-life experience!

Monsoon Toccata by Anthony Gilbert. 3'33; for solo piano. In memoriam Janet Owen Thomas (1961-2002). In 1988, Janet Owen Thomas met up with me in Sydney at the end of a short organ-recital tour - possibly her last before devoting herself entirely to composing. We returned to England together, doing a rapid circular tour of Northern India on the way. Alighting from the plane at Delhi we were hit by the whirling wind and torrential rain of the seasonal monsoon, and early the following morning there was also a minor earthquake. This experience determined the spirit of the music, and Northern Indian Raga determines the purely technical approach, with thequasi-improvisatory toccatalike textures acting as decoration to a slow-moving, widely-spaced modal top line which almost loses control of the overall shape at the mid-point - a reflection of the impact of those natural phenomena.

TOCCATA AND RETRO-INVENTION for solo piano by Howard J. Buss is dedicated to University of Arizona piano professor, Dr. Rex Woods. The titles of the two movements of this composition form a kinship with the toccatas and inventions of the Baroque era, but with a modern twist. They capture the spirit of the earlier forms, rather than the actual compositional procedures.

Composed during the summer of 2019, the Toccata for Solo Piano was influenced to some extent by the seven early Bach pieces known under the collective title Toccaten. It consists of several contrasting sections juxtaposing running rhapsodic material with recitative and fugal sections. There are two distinct themes that abound throughout: a seven-note aeolian-mode tune that is juxtaposed with a more chromatic one. The latter serves as a countersubject for the former in the Ricercare section before morphing into a double fugue, employing each as a subject, more or less equally. The two aforementioned themes are introduced individually in the opening section of the work.Piano Duration: 18' Composed: 2019 Published by: Hutter Music.
