Comments

"This work is based on a Lutheran chorale theme that a monk friend of mine introduced me to during my first trip to Paris, in 1933, after obtaining the Rabell Prize. This theme moved me completely and has been a recurring place in my other works. In the present case, harmonized for organ, it was the starting point of this fantasy that was premiered by the organist Montserrat Torrent and the trumpeter Francesc Brunet in 1979 on the baroque organ of Torredembarra (Tarragona)."
