Manuel Rosenthal
Manuel Rosenthal (18 June 1904 – 5 June 2003) was a French composer and conductor who held leading positions with musical organizations in France and America. He was friends with many contemporary composers, and despite a considerable list of compositions is mostly remembered for having orchestrated the popular ballet score ''Gaîté Parisienne'' from piano scores of Offenbach operettas, and for his recordings as a conductor.
==Early life and career==
Rosenthal was born in Paris to Anna Devorsosky, of Russian-Jewish descent, and a French father he never met.〔Nichols R. Manuel Rosenthal: Obituary. ''The Guardian'', 9 June 2003.〕 His surname was taken from his stepfather, Bernard Rosenthal.
He started his musical studies on violin at age 6, which he played in cafés and cinemas after his stepfather's death in 1918 to support his mother and sisters.〔Anderson, Martin, "A Century in Music: Manuel Rosenthal in Conversation" (April 2000). ''Tempo'' (New Ser.) (212): pp. 31-37.〕 In 1920, he entered the Conservatoire in Paris but eventually left it after failing to win an expected first prize.〔 In addition to continuing his violin studies with Alterman and Jules Boucherit and playing in theatre and cinema bands, he also studied composition. Around this time he met Léo Sir, inventor of string instruments known as the dixtuor, and was persuaded to play the ''sursoprano'' (a 4th higher than the violin) and find composers to write for this new medium. Through this Rosenthal met eminent young Parisian composers of whom Darius Milhaud and Arthur Honegger were the most distinguished, and also contributed his own music to a recital in Paris in October 1921.〔Landormy P. ''La Musique Française après Debussy''. Paris: Gallimard, 1943.〕
His ''Sonatine'' for two violins and piano, composed for a sight-reading examination, was acclaimed after its performance at the 99th concert of the Société Musicale Independante in Paris at the end of October 1924, attended by both Nadia Boulanger and Alexis Roland-Manuel. After a stint in the military he became Maurice Ravel's third and final student, seeing him once or twice a month〔His recollections were published as ''Ravel: Souvenirs de Manuel Rosenthal'', edited by Marcel Marnat, Paris: Hazan, 1995.〕 while also having lessons in counterpoint and fugue from Jean Huré.〔 while continuing to play violin in the Moulin Rouge and Casino de Paris café orchestras. Ravel's encouragement ultimately led to his winning the Prix Blumenthal (worth 20,000 francs) in 1928〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Universalis.fr )〕 He lobbied the directors of the Opéra-Comique to get Rosenthal's the one-act opera ''Rayon des soieries'' performed there in June 1930.〔 He also arranged for Rosenthal's conducting debut, at a concert composed of Rosenthal's own music in 1928.〔
