I mentioned the word Fantasy above. Kagel had a Schumann obsession and Schumann wrote a Fantasy Op. 73 and another Op. 88 and there is the Piano Fantasie Op. 17. In Kagel’s \u003cem\u003ePhantasiestück\u003c\/em\u003e a true dialogue is opened up between the two sound-worlds. The flute uses quarter-tones and what Richard Whitehouse brilliantly describes as ‘virtual breathing’. There is another passage in which the player sings down the flute in unison with what is played by the keys. The pianist also taps, early on in the piece, on the woodwork. All of these otherworldly sounds help to create a ‘fantasy’ ecosphere unique and like no other.\" - Gary Higginson, Musicweb International\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Phantasiestück\u003c\/em\u003e is playful, filled with a sort of good humor, harmonically rather primal sometimes, yet quite modern sounding, almost neo-classical in the Stravinskian sense, and thoroughly enjoyable.\" - Grego Applegate Edwards, Classical-Modern Music Review\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuration: 19'20.
