Original Programme Notes :
This work was composed for a performance in the church in Collbató which has a modern Catalonian organ (1979), built by Blancafort, whose workshop is only a few hundred metres from the church. The organ has two manuals and pedalboard, and a characteristic trompeta de batalla with horizontal pipes. This work is in one movement but loosely follows the traditional slow - fast - slow -fast form usually associated with the Sonata Da Chiesa.
