Monique de La Bruchollerie (20 April 1915 – 15 December 1972) was a French classical concert pianist.
At the age of 7 she entered the class of Isidor Philipp (a friend of her parents) at the Paris Conservatoire, which she left in 1928 with a first prize.
A concert she gave in 1932 under the baton of Charles Münch brought her breakthrough as a pianist.
[1] After the Second World War she developed an international career,[2] above all in the USA and in Poland, and she worked with conductors such as Sergiu Celibidache, Eugen Jochum, Herbert von Karajan, Ernest Ansermet and Jan Krenz.
[3] Her concert career ended quite suddenly in December 1966 through a car accident in Romania, as a result of which she suffered a fracture of the skull, lateral paralysis and an irreversible injury to her right hand.
