Franz Ignaz Beck
Born: 20th February 1734, Mannheim, Germany
Died: 31st December 1809, Bordeaux, France
Nationality: German
Franz Ignaz Beck was a German violinist, composer, conductor and music teacher. He spent the greater part of his life in France, where he became director of the Grand Théâtre de Bordeaux. Possibly the most talented pupil of Johann Stamitz, Beck is an important representative of the second generation of the so-called Mannheim school. His fame rests on his 24 symphonies that are among the most original and striking of the Classical period. He was one of the first composers to introduce the regular use of wind instruments in slow movements and put an increasing emphasis on thematic development.
