Composed by Robert Lind. General. Sheet music. Paraclete Press #0518. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.0518).
Fantasia in C: Inspired by J.S. Bach's "Fantasia in c" BWV 537, this attractive setting of "Fantasia in c" by Chicago composer, Robert Lind sets an appropriate tone for a meditative liturgy, or for use during the penitential season. Utilizing Eighteenth-century harmonic language, the Fantasia is constructed in an ABA form. The A section is replete of sighing motifs, leaps of a minor sixth and graceful melodic gestures. The B section is a short cleverly constructed fugue which, with a carefully chosen tempo and subtle registration, continues the meditative tone set by the opening section.
Fantasia in d: Robert Lind's craftsmanship and integrity shine through in this exciting composition. Filled with scalic passage-work, contrary motion chordal passages and interspersed with short fugal sections, "Fantasia in d" traverses several keys, each key change adding to the improvisational momentum. This stately piece set in a romantic harmonic language is for the seasoned organist looking for a thrilling postlude or concert piece. --notes by Maxine Thevenot
The counterpoint in both of these pieces is well thought out and could serve as a wonderful model for composition or improvisation....The C minor fantasy includes a short fugue; again, a good model of composition, and one of the better fugues I have seen in my reviewing tenure. ....These two fantasies are most welcome additions to the repertory. Both works will make one practice, but phrases flow easily and everything fits well under the hands and feet. Get the music and enjoy it. - Richard A. Konzen, D.M.A. "Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicians" March 2005.
