Kalle Toivio, the 2018 First Prize Winner of the National Competition in Organ Improvisation (NCOI) sponsored by the American Guild of Organists (AGO), appears in his debut CD on the Pro Organo label with a program containing 3 forms of organ improvisation, and featuring music of his mentor, the late McNeil Robinson, one of his own transcriptions of a Vivaldi concerto, and the Toccata Septima by Georg Muffat. The program is played upon the N. P. Mander organ (1993) at the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, on Park Avenue in midtown Manhattan, New York City.
