David
Toub :
3 Pieces for Electric Organ (2004) - Unreleased on CD, but available from
website.
These pieces, the composer writes:
"were written over the past few years (2000-2004), but were completed in the order 2-3-1. I started composing piece #1 first, but wasn't sure what instrumental combination I wanted for it (I first thought to do chorus and organ), and so it sat for a long time until I had already written pieces 2 and 3. Piece 1 is the longer of the three works, and is the only one that has significant sections that are not streams of sixteenth notes. All three were intended for an electronic organ (many current synthesizers will suffice) but could be just as well performed on the manuals of a pipe organ."

Back in January he participated in performances of his music in London. Dan Warburton interviewed Luc in 1998. Two of his works were performed at the Other Minds Festival in 1999, with Luc present. You can hear them here.
