Biography


Louis Rosoor was born in Tourcoing (in northern France), 1 September 1883. He studied cello first with Émile Dienne at the conservatory of Lille and then with Jules Loeb at the conservatory of Paris.[C 1]

He started being solo violoncello at the Concerts Hasselmans[2] then, in 1909, succeeded to the famous cellist André Hekking as cello professor in the conservatory of Bordeaux, position that he kept until 1950.[A 1] He was also teaching Chamber music.[B 1] He has been member of juries in the conservatories of Paris[3] and Toulouse.[4]

He played in various chamber music ensembles: the Marsick Quartet (with whom he had a three-month tour in Cairo[1] and around in 1909), the Gaspard Quartet (1910–1920),[B 2] the Thibaud[5] – Arthur – Rosoor Trio (1909–1933), the Quartet of Bordeaux (1936–?)[B 3] as well as with Francis Planté, in duo, trio with Noëla Cousin playing violin and in Piano quartet with also Marie-Valentine Rosoor, his wife, playing viola (1921–1927).[6]

He gave quite a number of concerts, most in Bordeaux[7] and around (e.g. in Arcachon[A 2] from 1910 to 1926) including in northern Spain, but also a few in Paris. He was one of the earliest performers of pieces like Debussy's sonata,[8] Fauré's second sonata or Vincent d'Indy's trio, all rehearsed with their composers.[9]

He was close to, or played with, other composers like Halina Krzyżanowska,[10] Maurice Ravel,[11] Jean Roger-Ducasse,[12] Guy Ropartz,[13] Albert Roussel,[14] Florent Schmitt[15] or Charles Tournemire[16] and performers like Lucien Capet,[9] Claire Croiza,[13] Paule Dencausse,[17] Paul Loyonnet,[18] Gaston Poulet[19] or Blanche Selva.[14] Julien Fernand Vaubourgoin dedicated his Sonata for piano and cello to him.[A 3]

He played a Testore cello at the beginning of his career[C 2] and, later, a Gigli ; occasionally[20] a Tecchler.

He was one of Le Violoncelle magazine's contributors since its first edition in March 1922.

He recorded in 1933 by Gramophone-His Master's Voice (K-6960 et K-7027).[21] His interpretations were broadcast on the "T.S.F." radio (1933–1938).[citation needed]

He was the author of a transcription of seven Bach Inventions called "Sept pièces pour deux violoncelles concertants ou pour violon et violoncelle – sans accompagnement de piano", still edited today.[citation needed]

He transcribed the Mozart Sonata for bassoon and cello (K.292/196c) into a cello concerto.[22]

Main founder of the Society of Chamber Music of Bordeaux,[23] he remained, as well as his wife Marie-Valentine, Technical Adviser for a long time.[B 3] Louis Rosoor has been an outstanding actor in the musical activity of Bordeaux in the first half of the 20th century.[citation needed]
