Шаблон:Infobox writer Alfred Wotquenne (Шаблон:IPA-fr; 25 January 1867Шаблон:Spaced ndash25 September 1939) was a Belgian musical bibliographer, best known for his catalogues of the works of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach and q Willibald Gluck.
Biography
Wotquenne was born in Lobbes, Hainault, Belgium. He studied at Brussels' Conservatoire Royal, where his teachers included Louis Brassin (piano), Шаблон:Ill (organ), and François-Auguste Gevaert (theory). In 1894 he was appointed the chief librarian of the conservatoire; he retained this post until his arrest in 1918. During his time the library acquired a great many works, both printed and in manuscript.
The best known of Wotquenne's achievements is his 1905 bibliographical study of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, but he also performed similar services for other composers: Baldassare Galuppi (1900), Christoph Willibald Gluck (1905), and Luigi Rossi (1909).[1] He also contributed to a complete inventory of the works of a fellow-Belgian, the Liège-born André Grétry.
Thanks to Wotquenne's efforts, C. P. E. Bach's pieces came to be known by their "Wq" numbers. They are now also known by their "H" numbers, from a new and more thorough catalogue by Eugene Helm (1989). A concordance between these systems is available.[2]
Conviction
He was arrested in 1918, and convicted for "participating with the enemy".[3]Шаблон:Better source By royal decree he lost the Order of Leopold and his position as chief librarian on 9 August 1919.
From 1921 Wotquenne lived in France, working in Antibes as a choir master and organ teacher. He died at Antibes shortly after the outbreak of World War II.
