The composer writes: 'Fiducie was commissioned by Reverend Rik Radstake in order to offer it to the Protestant congregation in Rotterdam Schiebroek on the occasion of his 40th anniversary of ordination.... Fiducie (which can be translated as "Faith") voices the vitality of Rotterdam, as, for example, witnessed in the recovered hope of the inhabitants after the bombardment of 14 May, 1940. The first theme of the composition (A1) illustrates the initial resistance in the recovery. It is followed by a B-section in which one can hear new confidence, although it is yet brief. The first theme comes back with already more hope and faith (A2), after which the B-part returns unchanged. One hears section A for a third time (A3), but with much more conviction. Then B returns once more, after which a glorious re-entry of self-confidence in C concludes the piece. Schematically it is as follows: A1-B-A2-B-A3-B-C.'

Thank you for posting. From the very beginning, I liked the interplay of rhythm between the manuals and pedals. This is a brief but engaging piece. Katelyn, you always perform with such intensity and expression, yet without overdoing it. In my humble opinion, this is a mark of a truly great performer.
