Fantasia suelta, free-form, through-composed with some imitation. Long work of 169 compases. Fewer interrupted Ks than in Valderrábano 93 – part of the marked difference in mode. Mode 1 transposed to G. Begins with imitations of brisk motivic theme 1. Then free ext to K at 12. >> S then B oriented free phrases to full K at 22. New section introduced briefly by stretto of motive 2 to Phrygian K at 28 >> long treble dominated section to 52. Texture reduced, new beginning expanding to section of shorter phrases occurring in a quite regular alternation between the two outer voices. K at 85 >> treble domination until 96 where 3 is introduced in S >> B >> A >> free counterpoint of continually shifting emphasis, generally with one voice leading at a theme, and little redoubles interwoven along the way. S. has mode 2 range.
