Toccata-Scherzo (2025) for piano

Featured Replies

Hey everyone,

I wrote a short work based on a particular rocking-up-and-down figuration that I liked while improvising. I guess it's a little bit like an étude w/ respect to technique but I also thought the almost perpetuum-mobile right hand gave it a somewhat toccata-esque feel as well. 

Hope you find it interesting; and if you have any suggestions/critiques/general comments I'd enjoy reading them!

Hi @林家興!

What a surprising and accessible sound you create with the slightly swung 16th notes!  This soon gives way to a B section that's very jazzy.  I really like the slow retransition back to the main material with an accelerando at the end.  It's very easy to listen to and understand and you capture this listener's heart with the sparkling and twinkling high piano notes that are like glistening icicles.  You display quite a lot of craft in this short and (somewhat) simple little piece.  I can't keep myself from listening to this over and over.  Thanks for sharing!
