Bernard Greenhouse (January 3, 1916 – May 13, 2011)〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher=HistoryOrb )〕 was an American cellist and one of the founding members of the Beaux Arts Trio. ==Life and career== Greenhouse was born in Newark, New Jersey.〔("Bernard Greenhouse" ) chronology〕 He started his professional studies with Felix Salmond at the Juilliard School when he was eighteen. After four years of study with Salmond, Greenhouse proceeded to move on to studies with Emanuel Feuermann, Diran Alexanian, and then became one of the very few long term students of Pablo Casals, studying with him from 1946 to 1948.〔 After finishing studies with Casals, Greenhouse went on to pursue a solo career for twelve years. He struggled with this however, as the cello was not a very popular solo instrument at the time. During this period he encountered violinist Daniel Guilet, who invited Greenhouse to record some Mozart piano trios with pianist Menahem Pressler. In 1955 they met in New York City, the first meeting of what was to become the Beaux Arts Trio.〔 In 1958, Greenhouse acquired the ''Countess of Stanlein'', also called the ''Paganini Strad'', one of 63 Antonio Stradivari celli, and played it ever after.〔("Bernard Greenhouse: A Master And His Cello" ) ''All Things Considered'' ''Diaries'' interview, broadcast August 21, 2008.〕 Following his death it was to be sold by Boston violin dealer Christopher Reuning. In 1987, he left the trio, and was replaced with cellist Peter Wiley. Greenhouse was known for his impeccable technique, but even more so for his inspiring passion and the depth and variety of his sound. During his career, he taught at the Hartt College of Music, State University of New York at Stony Brook, Manhattan School of Music, New England Conservatory, Rutgers University and the Juilliard School.〔 A series of videos of his master classes were produced in 1993 by Ethan Winer.〔 Though retired from institutional teaching, Greenhouse still gave master classes throughout the United States, Canada, China, Korea, Japan and Europe until his death in 2011.〔 Interviewed as the farewell concert of the Beaux Arts Trio on August 21, 2008 approached, he said he practiced every day and was considered "the old man of the cello", with other aging cellists being surprised that he still performed at the age of 95.〔 Greenhouse also remained the oldest of those who have played in the trio, until at least 2015, Daniel Guilet (who was born about a week short of 17 years earlier) having died at the age of 91,〔("Daniel Guilet, Violinist, Is Dead; Beaux Arts Trio Founder Was 91" ), New York Times, October 17, 1990〕 and Isidore Cohen having died at 82. Greenhouse's second passion was sailing on one of his several boats. He died on May 13, 2011 at his home overlooking the Wellfleet, Massachusetts harbor on Cape Cod. His daughter, Elena, with Aurora de la Luz Fernandez y Menendez, was married to author Nicholas Delbanco. His grandson-in-law is director Nicholas Stoller. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernard Greenhouse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
