A chromatic fantasia is a specific type of fantasia (or fantasy or fancy) originating in sixteenth century Europe. In its earliest form, it is based on a chromatically descending tetrachord which arises naturally out of the dorian mode. Consequently the chromatic fantasia is almost invariably in D minor even as late as Bach.
