OccupationPianist

Flora Guenzburg Zygman (died after May 1940) was a Polish-born American pianist based in Chicago.

Early life

Flora Guenzburg Zygman was from Warsaw.[1] She studied with Sergei Bortkiewicz and with Alexander Glazunov in Saint Petersburg.[2]

Career

Zygman taught[3] and played piano in Chicago[4][5] from 1917,[6] and was a soloist with the Temple Judea Symphony Orchestra in Chicago in 1918.[7] In 1919 she was a soloist with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.[8] She made her New York debut in 1919, in an afternoon at the Aeolian Hall.[9] "The young pianist played with daylight cheerfulness and feminist sensitiveness," reported one reviewer, "and with no little technical skill."[10]

She made piano roll recordings for Ampico in 1920.[11] She also played in trios with violinist Edmund Zygman and cellist Adolf Hoffman,[12] and gave a concert with German contralto Rosa Olitzka on Mackinac Island in 1920.[13][14]

In 1922, 1928, 1932, 1936 and 1940, she was briefly noted for being the very last alphabetical listing in each year's new edition of Who's Who in America.[15][16]
