Notes
Fantasies & Delusions is the thirteenth and final studio album composed by American singer-songwriter Billy Joel, released 2001.
Joel's first classical album: all of his previous releases had been pop/rock albums. Unlike previous albums, while Joel composed all of the pieces performed, he does not play the piano himself: instead, the pieces are performed by pianist Richard Joo. Joel remarked that while he was able to play the pieces disjointedly and in pieces while composing, he found it extremely difficult to perform the finished pieces with the finesse required.
