About his work, David Hurd writes:
TOCCATA - THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT uses the traditional solemn tone for the first verse of the Latin hymn Te Deum as a cantus firmus in the bass. The two phrases of the chant form the opening and closing sections of this movement while the middle section is a short fugue based on the melody of the first phrase.
