César Franck was a French Romantic composer, pianist, organist, and music teacher. He gained recognition for his improvisational skills and performances on new instruments in Liège and Paris. Franck later became an organist at the Basilica of St. Clotilde and a professor at the Paris Conservatoire. His compositions, such as symphonic, chamber, and keyboard works, are now considered classics in the classical music repertoire. Franck also mentored many influential composers and musicians.
