Enrique Fernández Arbós

Enrique Fernández Arbós (24 December 1863 – 2 June 1939) was a Spanish violinist, composer and conductor who divided much of his career between Madrid and London.

His many pupils included Maud MacCarthy (later Omananda Puri), the wife of the composer John Foulds.

He enjoyed a successful solo career but was also engaged as concertmaster of several orchestras including those of Berlin, Boston, Glasgow and Winnipeg.

[5] As a composer, Arbós is probably best known for his piano trio Tres Piezas Originales en Estilo Español.

In addition to these works, he wrote a zarzuela, El Centro de la Tierra (1895), which, for a brief period after its publication, was frequently performed in Spain.
