Franz Behr was a German composer known for creating many songs and piano pieces that were popular in salons. He wrote a large number of works and was considered quite productive in his time. His music was widely published and reached well over 500 opus numbers, showing how much he composed during his career. Among his pieces was a well-known work called Royal Gavotte. Behr's music included a variety of pieces with interesting titles such as The Camp of the Gypsies, Will o' the Wisp, Valse des Elfes, Perciotta serenade, and Evening Chimes in the Mountains. These works show his range and popularity among listeners who enjoyed piano and salon music. He gave his pieces various names that often evoke different moods and settings. Besides composing under his own name, Behr also used the pseudonyms G. Bachmann and Charles Godard. Under these names, he created additional works like Marche bulgare, Succès-mazurk, Paris-valse, La Belle Fileuse, and Danse d'Etoiles - Valse. This shows that he explored different musical styles and perhaps aimed to reach varied audiences through these alternate names.
