André Louis Mangeot (25 August 1883 – 11 September 1970) was a French-born violinist and impresario who later became naturalised in England.
Born in Paris, Mangeot studied at the Conservatoire de Paris before settling in London, where he played initially in the Queen’s Hall Orchestra and at Covent Garden.
[2] He founded the International String Quartet in 1919, to which he invited the young John Barbirolli to become its cellist.
[4] Mangeot also acted as violin teacher to a number of students who went on to make a name for themselves as musicians, among them Imogen Holst[5] and Anne Macnaghten.
[6] Later he summed up the essence of his instruction in his book Violin technique: notes for players and teachers.
