18th century

Franz Paul Rigler (also known as Franz Xaver Paul Rigler/Riegler; d. 1796) was a Viennese-associated keyboard virtuoso, composer, and influential teacher whose career is tightly linked to Pressburg (today Bratislava) in the late eighteenth century. Remembered as a prominent concert artist and a music professor at the Hauptnationalschule, he belongs to the generation that helped define Central European keyboard culture on the cusp of the Classical era. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Franz+Pau
