Frémaux, Louis

Alias : Louis Joseph Félix Frémaux

Louis Frémaux (13 August 1921 – 20 March 2017) was a French conductor. In the UK, Frémaux was principal conductor of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO) from 1969 to 1978. During his CBSO tenure, he formed the CBSO Chorus, with the baritone Gordon Clinton as its chorus master. In 1978 he was awarded an honorary DMus from Birmingham University; he also became a member of the Royal Academy of Music. However, his CBSO tenure ended in controversy after the relationship between Frémaux and the orchestra players had broken down.  [source from Wikipedia]
