Organ and Registration
This two page piece is written for two manuals and pedal. No registration indications are given in the score. However, a general style can be inferred from the dynamic marking of fortissimo.
Fingering and Pedaling
Be sure to finger this piece because both hands play a lot of scalar passage sixteenth notes.
