Mozart "Unfinished" Fantasy K.397

 How about Mozart? My teacher recommended that I type Fantasy in D minor K.397. This little piece is a masterpiece that is often played in concerts, but it is actually famous for being "unfinished". Most people think that Mozart had a larger work in mind and interrupted it. It is still unclear why this happened, but various studies have been conducted.

 And, assuming that we are going to end the piece as it is, there are a few ending scores that were added in an attempt to somehow finish the unfinished score. The one that has been played most often for a long time is said to be by Müller. However, there are many musicians who think that such an arrangement is not appropriate considering the structure of this piece. Mitsuko Uchida is one of them, and she plays a well-crafted ending.

 Well, here we are.Hackmey's paperI typed the ending (Example 12) based on the ending published in

     Title: Fantasy in D minor K.397(Hackemy)
     Sound Source: Vienna Synchron Concert D-274
     Audio file format: mp3
 

 In the process, I also typed my own ending for the Müller and Uchida versions. Let's compare the three versions up to the 97-bar fermata, which ends in the middle of the Mozart, and after that. Listen to it from somewhat before the ending. I'm interested to see what you think the intention of each of the three is.
