Summary of This Score
With Fantasy in C major op. 15 D 760, Schubert offers a fresco for solo piano that is both spectacular and deeply narrative. This fantasy, known for its continuity (sections flow without real pauses) and its almost symphonic breath, is a pivotal piece for pianists wishing to approach a more expansive, architecturally structured, and technically ambitious Schubert.
The score features energetic writing based on recurring motifs and thematic transformations that give the work its unity. It presents marked contrasts between dramatic surges, moments of inner lyricism, and episodes of virtuosity where articulation, voice balance, and management of sound layers become essential. It is a score that requires work both for precision and regularity as well as for musical breathing, sense of transitions, and building tension over time.
Designed for solo piano, this fantasy is aimed at pianists seeking a characterful work, suitable both for advanced study and recital program preparation. The musicological edition aims for a rigorous approach to the text, useful for refining phrasing, dynamics, and interpretative choices, while preserving the musical freedom inherent to Schubert.
