Popper
David Popper (1843–1913) was a Bohemian cellist and composer who studied in Prague before becoming principal cellist of the Vienna Court Opera Orchestra and later professor at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest. His marriage to Sophie Menter, one of Liszt's most celebrated piano pupils, a pianist Liszt himself described as his only legitimate piano daughter, ended in divorce. His legacy rests on two very different pillars: the High School of Cello Playing, forty études of formidable difficulty still in universal use, and the Gavotte No. 2, played by virtually every cello student in the world.
