Lovely classics

A masterpiece by Franck. Popular classical music.

This is a feature on the works of composer Eduard Franck, who was born during the era of the Kingdom of Prussia, the predecessor of modern Germany.

Because he was strict with his own compositions, he often completed works slowly.

As a result, his general name recognition is somewhat lower than that of contemporaries active in the same period.

Nevertheless, the deeply refined pieces he produced have earned solid acclaim and have been passed down to the present day.
