  • Fantasia and Fantasy: Some Notes on Two Homonymic Genres of German Chorale-Based Organ Music
    Fantasia and fantasy: Some Notes on Two Homonymic Genres of German Chorale-Based Organ Music Sverker Jullander During the last 500 years, the title of fantasia or fantasy (German: Fantasie) has been given to musical compositions of very different kinds, in most cases the title referring to a single-movement instrumental work for one (keyboard) player.1 Most fantasias are “free works,” but the term has some- times been used for organ compositions based on Lutheran chorales. The scope of the present text is limited to chorale-based organ works by German composers that have been given the title of fantasia or Fantasie, either by the composer or by later generations.2 The emphasis is twofold: the use of the term for baroque pieces, including the history of the label “chorale fantasia” for compositions of the North German baroque, and the emergence of the modern (“romantic”) chorale fantasy around the middle of the nineteenth century. The (im)possibility of a relationship between these two types of chorale-based works is also discussed. The seventeenth-century “chorale fantasia” The word fantasia was commonly used in the titles of keyboard pieces in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, but it is debatable whether it can be seen as a distinct genre; a piece named “fantasia” in one source could ap- pear in another under another title, for instance “ricercar.”3 Typical of the early fantasia was the prominence of imitative texture, but its distinguish- ing mark was supposed to be the element of improvisatory spontaneity in its creation, springing “solely from the fantasy and skill of the author who 1 Early fantasias were also composed for plucked stringed instruments such as the vi- huela and the lute.

Paul received his education in the parish school at Frankenmuth, and attended Concordia Teachers College (now University), River Forest, Illinois. Following his graduation in 1936 from Concordia, River Forest, he taught at Zion Lutheran Church, Wausau, Wisconsin, from 1936 to 1951, during which time he served as teacher, principal, organist, and choirmaster. In 1940 he attended Valparaiso University, Valparaiso, Indiana, where he received a bachelor’s degree. In 1944 he received a master of music degree from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He was granted a doctor of philosophy degree in music theory from the Eastman School of Music of the University of Rochester, Rochester, New York, in 1966. Bunjes joined the faculty of Concordia College in River Forest, Illinois, in 1951, where he served as chairman of the music department from 1961 until 1977. He continued teaching until his retirement in 1981. During his tenure the music department grew to its largest size in the history of the school for which he drew together a music faculty of unique quality and national reputation. During his tenure a new music building—Kretzmann Hall was erected, which included the then unprecedented number of some forty-four practice piano rooms and some twenty practice organs for student use.
