Pasacallejuela, for organ, in D minor

ISWC T-314.854.711.5 St. Mary church organ
in Port Washington, WI, USA

This short piece was specially composed for organist David Bohn who premiered it during a concert in Appleton, WI, USA, in August 2016. David Bohn performed it in Port Washington, WI, USA, in August 2021, too.

The piece sounds like a pasacalle (or passacaglia), the ancient street dance from Spain. Because callejuela designates an alley (a narrow calle), Pasacallejuela is a forged name for this miniature pasacalle.

This is Pasacallejuela recorded by David Bohn in Port Washington, in August 2021. (If the video does not show in your internet browser, try this link.)
