"A kind of speech in music" Lars Ulrik Mortensen calls the stylus phantasticus and emphasizes that this music must be played "so that it can surprise or shock and take the audience on a journey," and that its performance must and must "go all the way to - and momentarily over – the edge.” The evening's program provides such lavish examples of the free fabulist of the time that it gives the term "baroque music" completely new dimensions.

“En slags tale i musik” kalder Lars Ulrik Mortensen stylus phantasticus og understreger, at denne musik må spilles “så den kan overraske eller chokere og tage publikum med på en rejse,” og at dens udførelse må og skal “gå helt ud til – og momentvis over – kanten.” Aftenens program giver så overdådige eksempler på datidens frie fabuleren, at det giver begrebet “barokmusik” helt nye dimensioner.
