C# or D?

Dena K. Jones, UTEP

Article comments

The programing aspects were such that the majority of the works fell in a very close key relationship: that of either C# minor, D Major or D Minor. I offered some verbal commentary about other famous works written in these key centers just before performing Alicia Terzian's Toccata (the end of the first half), which does not fit into any of those key relationships.
