 Cello Sonata (Franck/Delsart)

The Cello Sonata in A major is a notable chamber music work originally composed by César Franck in 1880 as a wedding gift for the cellist and friend, Saint-Saëns. It is one of Franck's most celebrated compositions and is well-known for its rich harmonies and lyrical themes. The work was later transcribed for cello and piano by the French pianist and composer, Benjamin Delsart, who arranged it to capture the essence and spirit of the original piece.
