Welcome to Day Three of Spooky Week on IPR's Kids Commute - classical music for kids!

Today, we'll hear a piece of music so famous for being spooky that most folks can recognize it in about nine notes!

Wednesday, October 25, 2017 (Episode 37)
Toccata in D minor
Johann Sebastian Bach

Here's today's Kids Commute:

Want to see some brilliant flying fingers? Here's a video of organist Hans-André Stamm performing the full-length version of Bach's composition - known as the Toccata and Fugue in D minor. (We didn't have time on our show to air the "Fugue" part of the music - but it's pretty cool! Check it out!)
