Ferenc Farkas (15 December 1905 – 10 October 2000) was a Hungarian composer and music educator. Born in Nagykanizsa, he studied at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest under Leó Weiner and Albert Siklós, and later refining his craft in Rome with Ottorino Respighi. His compositions, over 700 works, span all genres: opera, ballet, musicals and operettas, orchestral music, concertos, chamber music and sacred music. As an educator, Farkas was one the most influential in the second half of the century. Among his students were György Kurtág, György Ligeti, László Kalmár and Miklós Kocsár.
