# Jan Willem Loot

Jan Willem Loot (15 December 1943 – 6 February 2021) was a Dutch orchestra administrator.

## Biography

Loot was born in Breda and grew up in Arnhem. He was one of four children in his family, with music as a standard part of his upbringing. As a youth, he learned the cello, and also the piano. He read law at the University of Groningen. During his studies in Groningen, he was a member of the Groningen-based student orchestra Bragi.
Loot's first post with an orchestra was as deputy director of the Overijssels Philharmonsch Orkest. He became general director of the orchestra at age 28, within a year of his initial hire. During this tenure, he altered the earlier policy of a lifetime appointment for the orchestra's chief conductor, and prevented a merger of this ensemble with Het Gelders Orkest.
In 1979, Loot became general director of the Amsterdam Philharmonic Orchestra (Amsterdams Philharmonisch Orkest). During his tenure, government decisions led to the merger of the Amsterdam Philharmonic Orchestra with the Utrechts Symfonieorkest (Utrecht Symphony Orchestra) and the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra (Nederlands Kamerorkest), with consequent musician redundancies. Loot oversaw the process, begun in 1985, and the resulting formation of the final organisation, the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra (NedPhO) / Netherlands Chamber Orchestra (NKO), along with the intended process of establishing the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra as the permanent orchestra for Dutch National Opera. He served as director of the foundation that oversaw the NedPhO / NKO, and secured the Beurs van Berlage as a rehearsal and performance venue for the musicians.
Loot became managing director of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in 1998. His tenure encompassed the granting of the title Eredirigent (honorary conductor) to Bernard Haitink, as a partial restoration of past ruptured relations between the orchestra and Haitink, the appointment of Mariss Jansons as chief conductor, and establishment of the orchestra's own label 'RCO Live'. He also oversaw a restructuring of the management model of the orchestra. He retired from the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in 2008, at age 65.
In 2009, Fritz Straatman published a book about Loot's career, De witte kuif op het frontbalkon (Jan Willem Loot: muziek en management) ['The white crest in the front balcony (Jan Willem Loot: music and management')]. From 2009 to 2012, Loot was artistic director of the Orchestre National de France.
Loot was married to the Dutch politician Winnie Sorgdrager. Their marriage produced two sons, Ernest and Daniel. Their marriage ended in divorce in 1977. Loot's ex-wife and his sons survive him.

# Joseph Coosemans

Joseph Théodore Coosemans (19 March 1828, in Brussels – 24 September 1904, in Schaerbeek) was a Belgian landscape painter.

## Life and work

His father, Adriaan, was a merchant, who died when Joseph was only a year old. His mother, Anna, died the following year and he was placed in the care of an aunt. After studies at a Jesuit college in Brussels, he took a job as a notary in Tervuren. He later worked as a clerk for a horse farm, and held several clerical positions for the city governments in Tervuren and Duisburg.
These areas were favorite spots for artists, which led him to develop an interest in painting. Under the influence of Théodore Fourmois, he decided to specialize in landscapes. He held his first exhibition in 1863. He remained entirely self-taught.
In 1868, he was one of the co-founders of the Société Libre des Beaux-Arts; originally a small workshop, later a sort of free academy. After 1872, he devoted himself exclusively to painting. During this time, he became one of the first members of an artists' group known as the School van Tervuren [nl].
He made visits to Normandy with Alfred Verwée and Louis Dubois, and spent a short time at Barbizon. While there, he created some works in the style of the Barbizon School. His own style gradually evolved from that of Fourmois to a simpler approach, reminiscent of Hippolyte Boulenger, his patron at Tervuren.
In 1887, he was named a Professor of landscape painting at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. In 1893, he suffered a cerebral haemorrhage, which paralyzed his right hand. Although he was able to learn how to paint with his left hand, his works took on a sketchy appearance. He retained his position at the Academy until his death in 1904, and was succeeded by Franz Courtens.
Shortly after his death, a street in Schaerbeek was named after him. In 2004, on the centenary of his death, the municipality paid him a tribute. The exhibition included forty-nine of his works, plus two by his son, Frits, as well as a bust of him by Léon Mignon, and a portrait by Jean-Emmanuel Van den Bussche [fr].

# Liebermann–Burchard test

The Liebermann–Burchard or acetic anhydride test is used for the detection of cholesterol. The formation of a green or green-blue colour after a few minutes is positive.
Lieberman–Burchard is a reagent used in a colourimetric test to detect cholesterol, which gives a deep green colour. This colour begins as a purplish, pink colour and progresses through to a light green then very dark green colour. The colour is due to the hydroxyl group (-OH) of cholesterol reacting with the reagents and increasing the conjugation of the un-saturation in the adjacent fused ring. Since this test uses acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid as reagents, caution must be exercised so as not to receive severe burns.
Method: Dissolve one or two crystals of cholesterol in dry chloroform in a dry test tube. Add several drops of acetic anhydride and then 2 drops of concentrated H$_2$SO$_4$ and mix carefully. After the reaction is finished, the concentration of cholesterol can be measured using spectrophotometry.
