Ursula Mamlok started composing as a child. She started studying Composition and Piano in Berlin with Professor Gustav Ernest. In 1938 she and her parents emigrated to Ecuador, where she had no possibility of continuing her studies. She received a scholarship to attend the Mannes College of Music in New York on the basis of compositions she submitted to them. Here she was taught, among others, by the conductor Georg Szell and Stefan Wolpe. Ursula Mamlok has received many awards, from the National Endowment for the Arts, for example, and commissions for pieces from the Koussevitzky Foundation and ensembles for New Music. In May 2003 she received the Presidential Medal in recognition of her 35 years as professor and composer at the Manhattan School of Music in New York City. Ursula Mamlok lives and works in New York.
