The “First Book of Toccatas” was printed for the first time in 1615 bearing the title: "Toccate e Partite d' Intavolatura di cimbalo di Girolamo Frescobaldi organista di S. Pietro di Roma ... Libro primo, In Roma da Nicolò Borboni, 1615". In twenty-two years (1615-1637) this first book was published as many as five times, undergoing substantial changes. Besides the twelve Toccatas, this volume presents the fourteen Partitas on a Romanesca melody, eleven Partitas on “Monica’s melody”, twelve Partitas on “Ruggiero’s melody”, six Partitas on la Follia and four Courantes.
