E.A. Couturier
Ernst Albert Couturier (September 30, 1869 Poughkeepsie – February 28, 1950 Wingdale) was best known as a cornet player who toured as a "virtuoso" performer on the concert programs of bands of the day. He promoted the Holton Band Instrument Company for a decade in that capacity before applying his own unique inventions to the production of his own line of brass band instruments between 1918 and 1923.
== Life ==
E.A. Couturier was born September 30, 1869 in Poughkeepsie, New York to a family with three other children.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Biography: Ernst Albert Couturier )〕 At the age of fourteen, he began playing the cornet. He entered the New England Conservatory of Music in 1885, but withdrew and took a job repairing watches in his uncle’s shop.〔 He began playing professionally in various bands in the 1880s and in 1890 began composing for band. In 1892, he became director of his first band and, in 1907, took a job at Frank Holton Company as a promoter of their instruments.〔 He received his first patent (U.S. patent 1,073,593) on September 23, 1913 for a more conical bore cornet. In 1916 he opened his own manufacturing concern with two other partners to produce brass band instruments.〔 That firm failed after Couturier lost his eyesight in 1923, was bought by Lyon and Healy, and ceased operations in 1929. Couturier suffered a mental breakdown and died on February 28, 1950 in the Harlem Valley Psychiatric Center in Wingdale, New York.〔
