St Dunstan's Chapel. Toccata for Solo Violin, by Stephen Gamble.


St Dunstan's is a side chapel in Leicester Cathedral, it is a quiet place for prayer and reflection. For two years I worked as a verger at the Cathedral and was often caught up in the beauty of holiness in the chapel as people quietly came in and prayed.


I wrote this piece back in 2005, it had its origin in improvising on the violin after the Cathedral had closed for the day, alone with the company of the saints, and with the evening's fading sunlight, or street lights, coming through the windows.


This version is played on the computer as illness rather restricts my playing now.
