I've listened to your toccata gaelica in a midday devotion in St. Michel during a trip to Hamburg, and after searching for it on the internet found this piece. I had lowered my expectations as I always do to not be disappointed by the music or anything, but the last piece the organist played was the toccata and it simply blew me away. The first music I really liked to listen to by myself was celtic music and therefore it feels deeply blue, melancholic, and so even though I tried to keep myself from doing that, subconciously I imagined an ideal concert (I know a midday devotion is not a concert but close to one) to be something like this and when it happened I just couldn't believe my own ears. We sprinted to the church as our school class had a guided tour in a museum 5 minutes away that exeeded the time limit and on a close call made it just as the doors were closing. I was so happy during and after the service, I felt like bursting. Thank you so much for making such awesome, deep and atmospheric pieces of music, you not only made my day but my entire trip!
Caro Veloci, thank you very much for your comprehensive message which makes me happy and encourages me thus reading that my music means something to people like you with a more elaborated music taste. My best wishes for you and a cordial greeting!
Имела счастье услышать это произведение в живую, на органном концерте в Калининграде, на острове Канта. Если сказать, что это потрясающе - это ничего не сказать! Музыка поразила меня в самое сердце, как будто это ветер шумел в кроне деревьев райского сада. Даже птицы слышны, и создается впечатление , что видны отблески солнечных зайчиков. Это просто феноменально!
Дорогая Евгения, большое спасибо за ваши добрые и поэтические слова. Мне очень приятно, что вам так понравилась моя музыка. Я бы тоже хотел когда-нибудь сыграть на большом органе в Кафедральном соборе Калининграда. Желаю Вам всего самого наилучшего.
Questa tua Meravigliosa Musica è bellissima sia con il pianoforte che che con l'Organo!!! Carissimo Andre, le tue dolcissime melodie descrivono chiaramente tutti i colori delle bellezze del Creato!! Grazie infinite! Carlino Livorno ( Italia )
