Csar Franck (18221890), Belgian born and French domiciled, was one of the most remarkable composers of the 19th century. A number of his works are commonly recordedsuch as his Symphony in D Minor, Symphonic Variations, Violin Sonata, and the everpopular Panis Angelicusand yet 38 years have elapsed since a biography of him appeared in English.Now with Csar Franck: His Life and Times, R. J. Stove fills this gap in the history of late 19thcentury classical music with a fulllength study of the man and his music. Drawing on sources never before cited in English, Stove paints a far more detailed picture of this great musician and deeply loved man, whose influence in both his native and adopted lands was exceptional. Stove carefully delves into intimate matters of Francks life, including his resilience in the face of his exploitation as a child prodigy at the piano, his development from a shy and harassed piano teacher into one of the most soughtafter luminaries of Pariss Conservatoire, and the truth behind Francks alleged affair with one of his students.Throughout his study, Stove interweaves panoramic surveys of the political and social scene in Belgium and France, contextualizing Francks achievements in his historical milieu, from his rise as a recognized master of the organ to his dealings with significant composers such as Liszt, Gounod, SaintSans, Massenet, Chabrier, and others. Csar Franck: His Life and Times is an engagingly written biography sure to interest classical music listeners of all stripes.
