Toccata in D minor

Johann Sebastian Bach

For trumpet and piano

Written in G minor, range F♯3 to E♭5

A storm at night over an old castle: the organ cries out, the echoes tumble down the stone walls, and the whole building seems to shake. It has become the sound of every haunted house, yet scholars still argue about whether Bach really wrote it.
