Leonardo Balada: Elemetalis: Organ

Elementalis is a short but very challenging work for Organ dating from 1975. It is effective in its aural brilliance and contrasts. The title is a deliberate distortion of the word 'elemental', for it utilises elemental,unsophisticated and primitive ideas. Among these are simple unions and clusters that the organist must play with his five fingers clustered together or with his palm or arm.
