French trumpet player Arthur Haneuse was born in 1922. He premiered the Concertino by André Jolivet under the direction of the composer in Abbaye de Royaumont (near Paris) on June 10, 1950. Of Dutch origines, Haneuse studied under Eugène Foveau at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris from 1944. He joined the Opéra de Paris in 1951. In 1952, Haneuse played at the radio, the Symphonie Concertante for trumpet, viola, piano and little orchestra by Gail Kubik (1914-1984), under the direction of the composer. Among his contributions was his recording of the Bach’s Second Brandenburg Concerto on a little F trumpet, with the Basel Chamber Orchestra conducted by Paul Sacher (1961, LP 25 cm Philips 06107) and his recording sessions alongside of Roger Delmotte with the Vienna State Opera Orchestra under Hermann Scherchen, (made at the Konzerthaus, Mozartsaal, on January 11, 1960, 1962 and reissued on CD : Handel Water Music-Westminster/DG CD 028947127628), Manfredini Concerto for 2 trumpets, and the Telemann Concerto for 3 trumpets (ReDiscovery CD 010). He was married to Michèle Darfeuille-Boussinot, a violin player. Later, Haneuse put aside his career as a trumpeter to become Doctor in Psycholigy (thesis, Paris V, 1987 : « Institution et psychose : un essai sur la condition et la problématique d’un psychologue clinicien dans une institution psychiatrique »).
