Every Organist Should Learn the D Minor Toccata. You Never Know When You'll Need It...

The other day a group of students from Vilnius Abraomas Kulvietis Classical Gymnasium came to our Vilnius University St John's church. They wanted to record one hymn with me. It was part of their project "Latin Vilnius". Some students tried out the organ themselves. It was fun. At the end of it I was asked to do a short organ demonstration. And of course somebody wanted me to play the D minor toccata. Well, even you haven't played it for many months or in some cases, years, you still have to do it. So you better learn it by heart to keep it under your fingers. You never know when or where you will need it (I heard some student say they want to study organ afterwards...)
