Khchaturian "Toccata" for piano solo

This is an adequate re-print of this popular Toccata. Not bad for $4. As for the work itself, I consider the piece to be less difficult than this site suggests (very advanced). I recall memorizing it some 30+ years ago but dropped it not too long after. It is in...
