It's me who voted for Franck. And I still seem to be the only one. I was very pleased that he was included in the list. I must admit that I voted him because of his work for piano solo. But can you imagine works that equal the Prelude, Fuga et Choral or the 3rd Coral? They are concerts on their own. You don't need an orchestra anymore.
