Franz or François Cramer (17721 August 1848) was an English violinist and conductor who was Master of the King's/Queen's Musick from 1834 until his death. He was born in either Mannheim or London, the son of Wilhelm Cramer and the brother of Johann Baptist Cramer. He was no doubt his father's pupil. Next to nothing seems to be known about his activities or compositions, yet he was appointed Master of the King's Musick in 1834, by King William IV, succeeding Christopher (or Christian) Kramer, no relation. The king died in 1837, and he continued as Master of the Queen's Musick to Queen Victoria. He died in 1848 aged about 76, and was succeeded by George Frederick Anderson. The only composition of Cramer's that has survived is a Capriccio (''Album Leaf'') for violin, which is in manuscript in the British Museum. ==Sources== * Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians, 5th ed. 1954 * (Answers.com ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Franz Cramer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
