So, for instance, the Neue Zeitschrift für Musik opined on 11 May 1883: “Since Beethoven probably few top-ranking composers have brought into being such creations as Eduard Franck. […] Several of them deserved to be performed symphonically, because prevalent in them are dramatic elements […].” Eduard Franck’s piano sonatas are perceived in our time as a modest continuation of the classical and romantic piano sonata in line with a recognized and proven model. With op. 40 now appearing, Breitkopf & Härtel begins its edition of Eduard Franck’s piano works, thus completing the picture of the romantic piano sonata in the second half of the 19th century.

These Six Piano Sonatas op. 40 comprise the first great sonata cycle by Eduard Franck. Composed in a longer period before 1882, the sonatas immediately found a great, in part brilliant reception after publication.
