Admiral of Fugues
As most of you know, my organ playing skills are basic. But I work hard and now am in a routine of playing the lovely pipe organ at the College where I work (Pymble Ladies' College, Sydney) at day's end.
I've been madly practising a very playable fugue like piece by Antonio de Cabezon (1510-1566) called Tiento del Primero Tono. Now it's really a fugetta to my ears however it is, in fact a piece of strict imitative counterpoint similar I guess to the Ricercare.
Anyway - it's fabuously to play and EASY. I mean I've just about mastered it. I love playing in on full organ and wobbling the Chapel's fixtures.
Anyone else know this treasure? I promise to typset it and put it up here for all if there's an interest in this happening.
