SKU: A0.976696
Composed by Robert Myers. 20th Century,Concert,Contemporary. Score. 8 pages. WheatMyer Music #3075511. Published by WheatMyer Music (A0.976696).Fingal's Fantasy is an original work for solo piano using three, synthesized,
seven-pitch scales derived from the first three variations of the opening theme in
Felix Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture, better known as Fingal's Cave. Fingal's Fantasy is
a three part work in which each section uses one of the three scales with each
section appearing in a contrasting style. Mendelssohn's original motive can be clearly
heard in the treatment of the first scale and appears more heavily disguised in other
sections. Despite the use of synthetic scales, the piece ends with a strong declaration
of B-minor in homage to Mendelssohn's selected key for Fingal's Cave. Fingal's Fantasy
is only moderately difficult but will engage even advanced performers with an
excursion into 21st century composition. It is suitable for concert or recital repertoire.
