Timeline

1923

Ursula Mamlok ( Meyer; February 1, 1923 – May 4, 2016) was a German-born American composer and teacher.

1938

Mamlok was born as Ursula Meyer in Berlin, Germany, into a Jewish family, and studied piano and composition with Professor Gustav Ernest and Emily Weissgerber until her family fled Nazi Germany following the nationwide pogrom in 1938.

Due to American immigration quotas, the family moved to Guayaquil, Ecuador.

1940

Ursula emigrated alone to New York City in 1940 to attend the Mannes School of Music, which had offered her full scholarship on the basis of one of her compositions.

1941

Her parents followed in 1941.

1945

She became an American citizen in 1945.

During four years at the Mannes School, Mamlok studied under the direction of George Szell.

1950

She received a bachelor's and master's degree at the Manhattan School of Music in the 1950s, studying with Vittorio Giannini.

Other teachers include Roger Sessions and Ralph Shapey in composition and Eduard Steuermann, one of the foremost piano pedagogues at the time, in performance.

Though Hindemith was one of her earliest influences, Mamlok credited the works of serial composers, including Schoenberg, Berg and Webern, as having the greatest impact on her compositional style.

She also said: "My music is colorful, with the background of tonality – tonal centers … I can't shake it completely."

Mamlok composed extensively for small chamber ensembles of various configurations as well as works for piano.

However, her output included a few pieces for orchestra, including a concerto for oboe.

Other works included several songs, as well as works for voice and chamber ensemble.

1967

Also an influential teacher, Mamlok held many university positions including placements at: New York University (1967–76), City University of New York, Temple University, Kingsborough Community College (1972–75) and the Manhattan School of Music, where she taught for four decades.

She served on the board of the League of Composers/International Society for Contemporary Music.

1974

Mamlok had received two National Endowment for the Arts Grants (1974 and 1981), a Fromm Foundation Grant (1994), a Fellowship from the Guggenheim Foundation (1995) and commissions from various organizations, including the Koussevitzky Foundation, the Eastman School of Music, the Alaria Chamber Ensemble and the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra.

1984

In 1984, When Summer Sang, a chamber work for flute, clarinet, violin, cello and piano, was chosen to represent the United States at the International Rostrum of Composers.

1987

Mamlok's husband, Dwight Mamlok, wrote the text for her 1987 song "Der Andreasgarten".

Of her own compositional style and pieces she said:

"My main concern is that the music should convey the various emotions in it with clarity and conviction. It interests me to accomplish this with a minimum of material, transforming it in such multiple way so as to give the impression of ever-new ideas that are like the flowers of a plant, all related yet each one different."

Mamlok also received a Commendation of Excellence in 1987 "for her contribution to the world of concert music."

The C. F. Peters Corporation, American Composers Edition, McGuinness and Marx, Casia Publishing, and Hildegard Publishing companies have published Mamlok's compositions.

She made the scores of many of her works available herself.

2016

In 2006, Mamlock moved to Berlin, where she died on May 4, 2016.
