Telemann's solo Fantasies for flute (TWV 40:8, c.1728) are remarkable works that pack complete musical arguments into a single unaccompanied melodic line. Transposed to C and played on a steel tongue drum, this Fantasie's flowing, sequential phrases gain a new warmth and resonance, the instrument's sustain filling in the implied harmony. A wonderful way to experience Telemann's inventive Baroque counterpoint.
How to play Fantasie No.7 in D (transposed to C) on a tongue drum
The numbers above are the standard tongue-drum number notation. Each digit is a note of the C Major scale, counting up from the lowest tongue. A dot above a number raises it one octave; a dot below lowers it. The small teal letters show the matching key in the Tongue Drum Online player.
Start slowly, one phrase at a time. Let each note ring out fully before striking the next — the long decay is the whole character of the instrument. This is a intermediate arrangement and a simplified, single-instrument version of Fantasie No.7 in D (transposed to C).
