The great French composers Fauré and Franck have generally been cast as total opposites, but in fact, they had much in common. Neither were really men of the theatre, nor were they natural symphonists, nor were they flashy orchestrators in the Berlioz or Rimsky-Korsakov tradition. But both cultivated what the French call 'intériorité', which one could translate as 'intimacy', though this loses the sense of deep reflection, even of transcendence, immanent in the French term.
