The arrangements are not quite original enough to count as fantasias, but the interpolations a singer would normally do have been altered, no doubt to make them more idiomatic for the harp, and there are other minor differences. For example, Una voce poco fa is slightly shorter than the aria in the opera, probably because without the words it is a bit repetitive.
