Life

Bernheim was born in Paris, on 23 May 1931, the son of André Bernheim, the owner and manager of the Théâtre de la Madeleine.[1] At the age of twelve he was arrested by the Gestapo and sent to the internment camp Drancy.[2][3] At fifteen he was chosen to represent the Lycée Janson-de-Sailly at the Concours Général of philosophy competition.[2] He studied at the Paris Conservatory, receiving a first prize in piano in 1953.[1] Bernheim was among the first French music students to receive a Fulbright scholarship, which allowed him to study further at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston.[2][3] He also studied with Hans Richter-Haaser in Detmold and with Magda Tagliaferro in São Paulo.[1] In the 1953 international piano competition in Bucharest, he was awarded a second prize together with Vladimir Ashkenazy.[2]

Bernheim made his Carnegie Hall debut in New York City on 25 February 1960 as a charity for the Red Cross.[4] He performed around 2,000 concerts until 1980, but then gave up his musical career for health reasons. He turned to Masonic research.[2][3]

A Freemason since 1963, he belonged to the Regular Grand Loge of Belgium and to the Grand Lodge Alpina of Switzerland. He was awarded the 33° by the Supreme Council of the United States (Southern Jurisdiction), elected a Chapter Knight of the Great Priory of Belgium and was a member of the Royal Order of Scotland. He is also the first French Freemason who was elected a full member of Quatuor Coronati Lodge No. 2076 (United Grand Lodge of England) from which he demitted in 2014. The Supreme Council of France made him a Member of Honour in 2014 and awarded him the distinction of Grand Commander Honoris Causa in 2018.[2]

In 1986 and 1993, he was awarded the Norman Spencer Award by the English premier Lodge of Research Quatuor Coronati Lodge N° 2076, 1997 the Certificate of Literature by the Philalethes Society (US), 2001 the Albert Gallatin Mackey Scholar Award by the Scottish Rite Research Society (Washington, D.C.), which elected him a Fellow, and 2007 was selected a member of The Society of Blue Friars.[5]

Bernheim wrote Les Débuts de la Franc-Maçonnerie à Genève et en Suisse (Slatkine, 1994),[6] many entries of the Encyclopédie de la Franc-Maçonnerie (Pochotèque, 2000), Réalité Maçonnique (Alpina Research Group, Lausanne, 2007) and some 150 papers published in French, English and German masonic magazines. His book Une certaine idée de la franc-maçonnerie, was published September 2008 by Dervy, Paris, and Le rite en 33 grades - De Frederick Dalcho à Charles Riandey, in September 2011, also by Dervy.[2]

Bernheim died in Montreux[3] on 26 December 2022, at the age of 91.[2]
