The two suites of Group IV, also for treble, bass and organ, match the nine fantasia-suites of Group III published in MB90, and like those works display a similar high level of instrumental virtuosity in their divisions. with the publication of MB104, all eight series of the composer's fantasia-suites are now available in Musica Britannica.
