The Allemande of the Partita in D, full of tender and telling agogic accents, and the Sarabande of the E-minor Partita were two highlights.

Quote: “The way you really tell a great organist is how he conveys rhythm. An organ is on and off, so there is a certain impersonality to it. Rhythm, though, is more a matter of articulation, of agogic rhythm, where you put space before certain notes to accent them so all the notes are not the same. Doing that in a way that is consistent and conveys rhythm to the listener is one of most elusive things about organ playing.”

He is not overly concerned with agogic markings, those indicators used by composers to specify how they wish a note to be attacked and released.

Professor Patterson knows Riemann and his "agogic accent," which, according to that editor of the Chopin Etudes, is a slight expansion in the value of the note; not a dynamic accent.

To judge from the concert and its first batch of releases — which includes the debut of Vu's sizzling group, Agogic, with Woodle, saxophonist Andrew D'Angelo and bassist Luke Bergman — the label will go wherever its young explorers decide to take it, with particular regard to the variety of musical and emotional experiences that came after the golden era of jazz but that are so often ignored by the music's more traditional adherents.
