I don't know about living up to the "good musician", but I'll keep trying. I am but a cog in cogs ![]() ![]() Good choice for a nick name. You have obviously been "touched" by good music! Toccata: Etymology: Italian, from toccare to touch, from Vulgar Latin — more at touch Date: circa 1724 : a musical composition usually for organ or harpsichord in a free style and characterized by full chords, rapid runs, and high harmonies I actually asked the organist at my wedding to play Toccata and Fugue, but she declined. It's a beautiful piece. But it gets associated with other things... ![]() |

Re: The best work of Gentle Giant.
Thanks Andy!! Toccata is an excellent nickname , Bach was the man of the toccatas everythings are wonderfulls, he wrote a lot of pieces. There are one organ's piece which I love too, is Bach's Passacaglia.
Sadly the marriage's organist decline to play, right.
