Kreutzer, Rodolphe

   Also found in: Hutchinson 0.07 sec.
Kreutzer, Rodolphe (kroit`sər, Fr. rôdôlf` krötzĕr`), 1766–1831, French composer and violinist. He was professor of violin at the Paris Conservatory from its founding in 1795 until 1826 and was one of the authors of the violin method taught there. Although he composed some 40 operas and numerous concertos and sonatas, he is remembered for his 40 études for the violin, which remain unsurpassed. Beethoven's Kreutzer Sonata is dedicated to him.
