Florica Musicescu
Florica Musicescu (21 May 1887, Iași–19 March 1969, Bucharest) was a renowned Romanian pianist and musical pedagogue, daughter of the renowned composer, conductor and musicologist Gavriil Musicescu.
She taught piano music for many decades at the Bucharest Conservatory (known as Royal Music Academy prior to World War II).
