Bernard Greenhouse (January 3, 1916 – May 13, 2011)[2] was an American cellist and one of the founding members of the Beaux Arts Trio.

During this period, he encountered violinist Daniel Guilet, who invited Greenhouse in 1954 to play some Mozart piano trios with pianist Menahem Pressler.

[4][7] In 1958, Greenhouse acquired the Countess of Stanlein, also called the Paganini Strad, one of 63 Antonio Stradivari cellos, and played it ever after.

[7][13] Though retired from institutional teaching, Greenhouse still gave master classes throughout the United States, Canada, China, Korea, Japan and Europe until his death in 2011.

[3] His daughter, Elena, with Aurora de la Luz Fernandez y Menendez, was married to author Nicholas Delbanco.
