Today, he has chosen to perform seven emblematic works of the fantasia genre on harpsichord, fortepiano, tangent piano, early grands, and so on. In this journey through the keyboards of time, we can discover these pieces as they sounded at the time of their creation, but also grasp the invisible thread that links them to each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/officialTRACKLISTINGWITHWORLD_979e49e8-d8e2-4846-9ee5-761afb1c529a_480x480.png?v=1687342885\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJohann Sebastian BACH (1685-1750)\u003cbr\u003eChromatic Fantasia \u0026amp; Fugue in D minor BWV 903\u003cbr\u003eRé mineur \/ d-Moll\u003cbr\u003e· Fantasia (6'11)\u003cbr\u003e· Fugue (5'50)\u003cbr\u003eTWO-MANUAL HARPISCHORD BY MARKUS FISCHINGER (BERLIN, 2019), AFTER HANS RUCKERS II (ANTWERP, 1624, REBUILT CA. 1720)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCarl Philipp Emanuel BACH (1714-1788)\u003cbr\u003eFantasia in F-sharp minor H. 300, Wq. 67\u003cbr\u003e· Fa dièse mineur \/ fis-Moll (11'18)\u003cbr\u003eTANGENT PIANO (TANGENTENFLÜGEL) BY CHRISTOPH FRIEDRICH SCHMAHL (REGENSBURG, 1790), RESTORED BY GEORG OTT\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWolfgang Amadeus MOZART (1756-1791)\u003cbr\u003eFantasia (Fragment) in C minor K. 396\u003cbr\u003e· Do mineur \/ c-Moll (2'54)\u003cbr\u003eFantasia (Fragment) in D minor K. 397\u003cbr\u003e· Ré mineur \/ d-Moll (5'47)\u003cbr\u003eFORTEPIANO BY CHRISTOPH KERN (STAUFEN IM BREISGAU, 2014), AFTER ANTON WALTER (VIENNA, 1795) - ALEXANDER MELNIKOV'S COLLECTION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFelix MENDELSSOHN (1809-1847)\u003cbr\u003eFantasia in F-sharp minor Op. 28\u003cbr\u003eFa dièse mineur \/ fis-Moll\u003cbr\u003e· I.
