Hi, Omer,
Well, I would think the first question would be what your (or your
instructor's) definition of "fantasy" is. The term seems to have fallen out of
favor early in the 17th c. Would preludes, intermezzi, etudes, or romances
count? Can it be any relative non-structured, i.e. not a song
Fascinating, as you say, Roman. Does anyone know what these fellows would have

any comments?

Well, not exactly, IMHO. It's good, as Nick and Jaroslaw have said, to
play with feeling and varying tempo when performing. It's also good to
know when and why you're doing it, which is where a metronome, online or

Hi, all,
If it is the books of songs that you're looking for, Dover Publications has (or
