Will Marion Cook (1869 - 1944) États-Unis Will Marion Cook (1869?1944) was a composer and violinist from the United States. Cook was a student of Antonín Dvoøák and had performed for King George V among others. At an early age, Cook's musical talent was apparent. At age fifteen, he was sent to the Oberlin Conservatory to study violin. With help from members of the African American community, his benefit recitals were sponsored to help him afford to study abroad. From 1887 to 1889, he studies at the Berlin Hochschule fur Musik working with Josef Joachim's former student, violinist Heinrich Jacobson; Jacobson served as Chairman of the Orchestral Instruments Department. Although it is often stated that Cook studied abroad for nine years, there is no evidence of this. (Hide extended text)...(Read all) Source : Wikipedia
