As the title suggests, “Toccata all’antica” (2019) alludes to early Italian keyboard music. The work is in five sections, beginning with an opening section of robust, energetic music. The three middle sections are a slow aria, a light dance, and an expressive adagio. The fifth and final section is a return to the mood of the beginning. Unlike early models, the composition is cyclic—the thematic material is shared across the sections.

Italian organist and composer Angelo Maria Trovato (b. 1977) was born in Catania and educated at the conservatory there. His teachers included Daniele Boccaccio and Gianluca Libertucci. In addition to many organ works, Trovato has written music for choir, piano, band, orchestra, and jazz ensembles. He has also been active as a writer, publishing both poems and short stories.
