Hungarian Fantasy (Liszt) Hungarian Fantasy (Liszt) The Fantasia on Hungarian Folk Melodies (German: "Fantasie über ungarische Volksmelodien", Hungarian: "Fantázia magyar népi dallamokkal"), commonly known in short form simply as the Hungarian Fantasy, is Franz Liszt's arrangement for piano and orchestra of his Hungarian Rhapsody No. 14, originally for solo piano. The Fantasia was written in 1852 and premiered in Pest on June 1, 1853, with Hans von Bülow as soloist and Ferenc Erkel conducting the orchestra. During Liszt's lifetime, his Hungarian Rhapsodies were among his most popular works. Because of this popularity, he may have been under pressure to produce versions of them
