Farkas, Ferenc
Ferenc Farkas was born in Nagykanizsa in 1905 and died in Budapest in 2000. The Hungarian composer received his training in Budapest and continued it with Ottorino Respighi in Rome. He worked for film studios, conducted ensembles, and served for many years as a composition teacher at the Budapest Academy of Music. His students included, among others, György Ligeti and György Kurtág. Farkas wrote for a wide variety of instruments and ensembles, including rarer instruments such as the baritone and French horn. His work as a pianist, conductor, and educator complemented an extensive compositional body of work. Recordings make his diverse sonorities and the versatility of his musical interests accessible.
