Biography
Frank Martin
Effective period / Period of releases: 1951 - 2015
Classical composer. Swiss and part-French in his lineage, Frank Martin (15.09.1890 - 1974) taught composition in Cologne, but also had a career as keyboard-player. His music has been described to be tonal (absorbing the serialism of Schoenberg) and combining "a German element with French in a musical idiom that is his own".
