Maurice Gendron

Maurice Gendron was a French cellist and conductor born in Armentières in 1920 who studied at the Conservatoire de Paris and began an international performing career in the mid-20th century specialising in classical and Baroque repertoire. He was particularly associated with interpretations of the Bach cello suites and core concerto repertoire, and he combined performing with teaching and conducting, contributing to mid-20th-century cello practice and recording traditions.
