Enescu
George Enescu (1881–1955) was a Romanian composer, violinist, and conductor who entered the Vienna Conservatory at the age of seven, one of the youngest students ever admitted, before moving to Paris to study with Massenet and Fauré. He was Yehudi Menuhin's most important teacher; Menuhin studied with him from childhood and spoke of him throughout his life with a reverence he reserved for no other musician. Enescu's own masterpiece, the opera Oedipe, took twenty-five years to complete and remains little performed outside Romania despite its scale and ambition. His two Romanian Rhapsodies, by contrast, became internationally famous and are among the most vivid showpieces for string orchestra in the repertoire
