Bridge records reports the death this morning of Ursula Mamlok, at the age of 93. She had returned ten years ago to live in her birthplace, Berlin, which she fled after Kristallnacht in 1938.

Ursula studied at Mannes with Georg Szell and Ralph Shapey and went on to teach at NYU, CUNY, Temple and Manhattan School of Music.

Her output, moderately modernist, is for small chamber groups.
