Etelka Freund

Etelka Freund (18791977) was a Hungarian pianist.

A disciple of Ferruccio Busoni, she played regularly for Johannes Brahms during her training years. An international career, throughout which she was an early divulgator of Béla Bartók's music, ensued her 1901 debut. She brought it to a halt in 1910, resuming it in the mid-1930s. She made her American debut in 1947, at the National Gallery of Art.
