Notes by Christopher HaileyThe eighteenth-century antecedents of the modern concert grand - the harpsichord, clavichord, and fortepiano - were instruments well suited to the intimacy of the chamber, to small gatherings and candle-lit interchange. It was an age of conversation, and music, modeled on this principal pastime, was a medium for wit, sentiment, and rhetorical flourish. Mozart's Fantasy and Scarlatti's sonatas, which bracket this recital by David Fung, remind us why the keyboard was considered such an ideal vehicle for a composer's flights of fancy. Here, alone, the thinking musician could freely engage the listener's ear with the allure of the musical idea. These four works, all in a minor key, are a reminder that ruminative introspection was every bit as characteristic of this "enlightened age" as sparkling repartee. Scarlatti's over five hundred sonatas, written around mid century for the Spanish court, are pioneering works for the harpsichord. Their succinct form, sharply etched individuality, and technical brilliance proved influential upon several generations of keyboard composers. Among Mozart's solo keyboard works, the C-Minor Fantasy (1785), no doubt conceived for the fortepiano, holds a special place in the composer's output for its dramatic turbulence and harmonic daring, qualities that anticipate a Romantic age that Mozart, dead at 35 in 1791, would not live to see. In the nineteenth century, as candle light gave way to gas, the piano, whose frame was now reinforced with iron, virtually replaced all earlier keyboard incarnations. ...

BIOGRAPHY World class organist, Dr. Dorothy Young Riess, was born to a musical family and started piano with her mother at age four. Changing to the organ at 16, she played the Hammond at her High School and created her own radio show of pop tunes and news on KTOW, Oklahoma City. At the University of Oklahoma, she became a protege of the legendary Mildred Andrews and won numerous awards including First Place in the American Guld of Organists National Competition in 1952. After studying with Marcel Dupre in France, she spent several years playing concerts in the States and Europe. While serving as Organist at the American Church in Rome, Italy, a visiting Yale professor heard her play and offered a scholarship to Yale University Graduate Music School. She performed her Master's Recital on the great organ in Woolsey Hall including the Reger piece on track 1 of this CD. A series of life-changing events led her into medicine and she received her M.D. from the University of Oklahoma School of Medicine in 1969. While practicing Internal Medicine in Pasadena, she resumed organ playing and teamed up with jazz drummer, Timm Boatman, to record "Bach With a Beat" at All Saints Episcopal Church, tracks 5-12. Dr. Dorothy has always enjoyed the dance rhythms in Bach's music. A flawless technique and impeccable sense of rhythm and style make her performances exciting and unforgettable.THE ARTIST SPEAKS Track 1 - When I was a graduate music student at Yale University way back in 1959 (I'm ON the hill, not OVER it - yet), I planned my Masters Organ Recital to include three of the most difficult pieces I could find. "Phantasie für Orgel über den Choral: "Hallelujah! Gott zu loben, bleibe meine Seelenfreud'!" (Fantasy for Organ on the Chorale, "Praise the Lord, O My Soul") by German composer, Max Reger (1873-1916), Op. 52. No.3., topped the list - 21 pages of glorious music based on an old German hymn tune. It opens with a loud flourish, big chords, pedal cadenzas and flamboyant finger work, followed by the first variation and hymn tune played on the pedals. In all, Reger wrote 7 variations on this tune, using different registers and moods. Between the 6th and 7th variations he wrote a brilliant fugue, and at the last minute (page 18) announced the tune on the pedals with every stop going. I used the huge 32' Bombarde ...
