Programming is so hard. Not like python or Java bullshit, but rectal programming.
I suddenly had this epiphany of putting together in a program Zhoe Op 17, Chopin Op 49, Schubert Wanderer, and Falla Baetica. Because who doesn’t like a rectal fantasy. Ehrm, sorry, a fantasy rectal.
But then it quickly sounded like a bad idea.
So. What goes well with Zhoe Fantasie.
What about a C Major program.
Zart 330, Waldstein Zon, Zhoe Fantasie?
And Zhoe Op 7 as an encore 
I’m normally scared of C major fatigue but somehow that program doesn’t sound too crazy…
hey, i had that thought a while back! c major arabeske, fantasy, and toccata all back to back
I’d say do some pimp
I’ve only practiced pimp in 2020. I need a break 
The Schumann, paired with the Busoni Piano Concerto arranged for solo piano.
I like programs that mix up larger pieces and smaller ones. Da Ho ideal pairing I figure if you check out his concertography.
Hmmm, a classical sonata will go well with it, pozz.

tru, rectal iz faztah n tightah, but da cumpiled output iz often not az clean 
fantasia themed program?
Bach
Shoe
Scriabin nocturne-fantasy
Copland / Corigliano if you’re into that
Zhoe fant, medtner fairy talze, Zcrib fant randomly imo
Carmen encore 
one Kan only wundah at why da feztinmofo passed on da oppurtuntiy fo a private lesson with da fuckin KAT
fo da ZART k397
Bach Fantasy & Fugue BWV 944 6 minutes
Zhoe Fantasy 30-32 minutes
Pimp Dante Fantasia quasi Sonata 15-19 minutes
Scrib Sonata No. 2 “Sonata-Fantasy” 11-12 min
There you go! A sick rectal that’ll last about 65-70 minutes.
I was thinking in the same direction. A “fantastic” program.
zo berlioz zheeyat in encore ? 
Rather than combining pieces which share a name, why don’t you combine pieces which either share or contrast sentiment? After all the fantasies you listed (Schu, Chop and that turd by Schubert) have nothing in common.
A love and desire piece like op. 17 could be contrasted w/ one of Liszt’s serious death / death-minded pieces (not Totentanz). You could also find a work which is more sinister or malevolent or evil to balance op. 17. There’s quite a lot of that in obscure early 20th C. Russian rep.
Bach 944 is a good call. B-L 543 would work well too.
Consider a few of Stravinsky’s op. 7 etudes too. 1 and 3 have a beautiful atmosphere of longing and unease.
nice.
tru, let’s stop thinking like da lezboo, hu considered da 2 versions of da Liszt Lubegubre Gondola to be programmable in as a set.
Thanks! I like this.
Another thing I had in mind at some point was to pair the op17 with a few Kapustin etudes and then Ravel Gaspard. But I couldn’t see that clicking either.
As you mentioned the Russian early XX repertoire, maybe simply the Schumann and one of the big Prok sonatas might work? (not quite ‘early’ XX century, though) What about Medtner? Although for my taste Medtner is too ‘hit and miss’
As TM said above also, just adding a classical sonata could be interesting…

sharing ‘a name’ is precisely what you’re talking about though, sharing a sentiment… the fantasia / fantasy is a genre, not simply a title with no meaning. and obviously if you play pieces that range in music history about 250 years (from Bach to Scrib to Schubert to Copland, e.g.) you get precisely pieces that also ‘contrast sentiment’ (or at least style) lol?
oh, now that i’ve written this i see you were responding to someone else… but maybe you just dont like the Schubert wanderer? i can do without that pimp dante crap myself… but nevertheless the fantasia is a really amazing genre to explore… if someone wanted to branch out they could play music by John Bull, the Szymanowsky fantasy which nobody plays, one of the Froberger fantasias, the Carter Night Fantasies, etc
