78. France in the 19th Century: Auguste Franchomme and Felix Battanchon

In this episode, featured are the two cellists from France, Franchomme and Battanchon. Although Franchomme is fairly well-known for a set of etudes there is a twist of what was accepted in studios and "good" material for learning.

Besides that, the German cellist Romberg contributed to a modern notation marking for a particular fingering that was adopted even by the French early on.
