Prof. E. Rosendorn,
is a native of Germany, born in the city of Berlin, in 1845. His father was a banker in Berlin and very
fond of music, as were all of the family.
He was reared and received his literary education in his native

for music he applied himself to its study as an accomplishment and afterwards
entered the Kullack Institute of Music, a celebrated
institution in Berlin. After completing
his course he came to New York, and from there to the
Pacific coast, spending one year, in Oregon, and then came to California and
since then, for the past twenty years, has been identified with the profession
here. He established the Conservatory of
Music, and has a large and successful school.
During his younger days he did much in the way of composition, but for
some years has devoted his whole time to teaching and the interests of his
school.
