The Frescobaldi Thematic Catalogue Online
Frescobaldi (probably): F14.05. Capriccio fatto sopra il Cucchù
Scoring: Keyboard
Genre: Toccata
Key/Signature: G /♮
Main Source: Chigi Q.IV.25
Notes: There are six sections; beginning with the second they are marked 2 Parte, 3 Parte, 4 Parte, 5 Parte, and 6 Parte, et ultima. The beginning is identical to F 4.03, but after the first three measures the two capriccios share no more than the “cuckoo” bird-call ostinato. For more on the relationship between the two works, see Darbellay (2007). Nicolò Borbone.
