		Fantasie (Obolen auf Beethovens Monument) for piano in C major, Op.
		Schubert's "Wanderer" Fantasy is on my shortest list of music that I have known over the years that is dear to me. Richter's reading is a deserved classic.
		His own Fantasy opus 17 is also a virtuosic work, probably Schumann's greatest composition for solo piano, but of a different spirit than Schubert's.

		760), a fantasy for piano solo in four movements, which follows the classical sonata form.
		This second movement (set in C sharp minor) is a sequence of variations on a melody taken from the lied Der Wanderer, which Schubert himself wrote in 1816.
		The Wanderer Fantasy is considered Schubert's most technically demanding composition for the piano.

		At the same time, the four-hand Fantasy may be considered a sonata form, with the Largo and Scherzo (tonally in the Neopolitan region of F-sharp) serving as development.
		His largest project was Wanderer Fantasy (1851), which provides the closest proximation we have to a Schubert piano concerto.
		Fantasy in C, the so-called Wanderer Fantasy, was Schubert's first large-scale composition to be published.

		Among these keyboard works, his best-known compositions include the familiar Moments Musicaux and the two sets of Impromptus; Fantasy in F Minor for piano duet; the Wanderer-Fantasy; and his last three grand piano sonatas, written in a single month in 1828, only a few weeks before his death.
		It has taken a long time for his sonatas to be appreciated and become part of the standard repertoire.
		This theme in fact is seen to supply much of the material of not only the second movement but of the entire piece.

	A Wanderer Fantasy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Set in Vienna in 1828, "A Wanderer Fantasy" focuses on the last months of Schubert's tragically short life.
		Faced with his own mortality, just as his artistic vision is rising to new heights, music pours forth in a last flowering of creativity before his 'unmentionable' illness takes its toll.
		Using the metaphor of the wanderer, a figure that haunted Schubert's imagination, "A Wanderer Fantasy" is an evocative, moving drama that sheds new light on a much-misunderstood musical genius.

	INKPOT#65 CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS: AYSEGÜL SARICA Recital - 10 November 1998
		The original programme for this recital by Turkish pianist Aysegül Sarica featured three great fantasies - Bach’s Chromatic Fantasy & Fugue, the Schubert "Wanderer" Fantasy and Schumann’s Fantasy in C. This unconfirmed menu was eventually replaced by a selection of pieces by Beethoven, Grieg, Debussy, Darmar and Kodály, retaining only the Bach.
		But slips and smudged chords aside, she made her individual point: that passion is a fantasy of feelings, alternately intimate and playful, as in the Andante, or a flowing torrent of argument as in the finale.
		The apparent detachness of these swiftly changing moods is reflected in her preoccupation over "fantasy" — that it is the detached that are allowed to wander, and in wandering one derives the freedom to be truly lyrical.

	The SF Site Featured Review: The Wanderer
		He is well known for his fantasy titles such as the Fafhrd and Gray Mouser series, Our Lady of Darkness, Conjure Wife, and "Gonna Roll the Bones," which appeared in Dangerous Visions and won both a Hugo and a Nebula.
		The Wanderer's gravitational field captures the moon and shatters it into something like one of Saturn's rings.
		This is a somewhat dubious legacy, if taken at face value; it follows that The Wanderer not only prefigured excellent work like John Brunner's quartet of "awful warnings," but also made possible the glut of cheesy Irwin Allen movies from the 70s.

	Great Performances . Educational Resources . Composer Biographies . Franz Peter Schubert \| PBS
		Frequently gathering for domestic evenings of Schubert's music (later called "Schubertiads"), this group more than represented the new phenomenon of an educated, musically aware middle class: it gave him an appreciative audience and influential contacts (notably the Sonnleithners and the baritone J. Vogl), as well as the confidence, in 1818, to break with schoolteaching.
		The virtuoso "Wanderer" Fantasy is equally impressive in its structure and use of cyclic form, while the String Quartet in G explores striking new sonorities and by extension an emotional range of a violence new to the medium.
		Reasons for their abiding popularity rest not only in the direct appeal of Schubert's melody and the general attractiveness of his idiom but also in his unfailing ability to capture musically both the spirit of a poem and much of its external detail.

	SCHUBERT: Fantasy in C "Wanderer" D 760; LISZT: 2nd Year - Italy - from "Années de pelerinage" - Luiza Borac, piano - ...
		Schubert's Wanderer is surely his most extroverted and heroic work for piano - almost more like what Liszt would write.
		It was a pleasant surprise to find the complete Wanderer poem by George Philipp Schmidt printed on the back of the note booklet; I had never seen it before.
		Her playing is sensitive and beautifully phrased on all the works, but there are Wanderer performances of a more heroic nature - which the piece seems to call for.

		The Hungarian-born composer's sense of drama was not especially subtle, but he certainly found an outlet for it in his series of 13 symphonic poems (among them Orpheus, which will be performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic in December); drama also plays a part in the piano concertos, especially the First.
		Structurally, the concerto owes much to Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy, with its four sections connected by a common theme and literally connected together without breaks into a single movement.
		Sketches for the material heard in the Concerto No. 1 date as far back as Liszt's late teens (1830), although it was more than 20 years before he completed the work and introduced it at a concert in Weimar in 1855.

	Performance Reviews, Zeynep Ucbasaran
		Yet from the first restless chords of the Wanderer Fantasy, to the last funereal trudge of the Vallée d’Obermann, it was obvious that we were in the presence of a daughter of thunder.
		This demure young woman appeared small and unassuming until she sat down at the grand piano and sailed into Franz Schubert's "Wanderer Fantasy." Her attack was forceful, very nearly overpowering.
		After wowing the audience with "Wanderer," Ucbasaran played Franz Liszt's "Vallee d'Obermann." Again, the wonder of this diminutive performer was that she attained mastery of a work Liszt wrote for himself - Liszt of the massive hand span.

	Zeynep Ucbasaran - Reviews
		In Nuages Gris, she flirts with silence more than with the avalanche of notes, and in the Fantasy and Fugue on BACH there seems to be a mystical seeking.
		Similarly, her sympathy with the strangeness and tragedy of Nuages gris is evident, although neither in this nor in the equally difficult B.A.C.H Fantasy and Fugue can she quite yet sustain the mystery and length of paragraph needed to reveal them to best advantage.
		Awarded second prize at the 1996 Los Angeles Liszt Competition and an honorable mention in the same competition in 2000, she has given piano recitals in many countries and currently lives in Santa Barbara, California, where this outstanding CD was recorded.

		One of its earliest manifestations was his 1822 "Wanderer" Fantasy for piano.
		Despite being titled a fantasy and played through continuously, the work suggests a sonata, with sections corresponding to the traditional four movements.
		Among the abundant recordings of the Wanderer Fantasy, Brendel (Vox or Phillips) tends to clarify the structure, Rubinstein (RCA) is rather formal, Curzon (Decca) tender, Richter (EMI) full-blooded and Perahia (Sony) rich and probing.

		Believe it or not, the fantasy D760 was one of the first works I tried to learn as soon as I got my keyboard...
		The Wanderer Fantasy D 760 is not normally regarded as one of Schubert's piano sonatas.
		This is because it's not strictly a classical sonata as it contains 4 movements, not 3; and all 4 movements use a consistent theme instead of being independent.

		The playing is glorious and full of startling insights, with as many moments of ethereal delicacy as of barnstorming power.
		The lighter-than-air charm in the two Beethoven sonatas is set against the furious intensity of Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy, while Schumann's Abegg Variations and Fasschingwank aus Wien show that mercurial ability to switch moods that Richter, more than any other Schumann pianist, understood so instinctively.
		The BBC tape is just about serviceable, though the audience seems to have been determined to drown out the Beethoven with coughing, and in Fasschingwank the tuning of the piano was starting to go awry.
