Canto Ostinato for Keyboards

Album by Simeon ten Holt & Jeroen van Veen

Canto Ostinato is a composition for keyboard instruments by Dutch composer Simeon ten Holt, composed in 1976. The piece employs repeating patterns, slow harmonic shifts and an open-form score that allows performers to determine the number and duration of sections, and it occupies a prominent place in Ten Holt's output and in the development of Dutch minimalism.
First released: 2010
