Fanny Basch-Mahler (27 July 1854 – 11 November 1942), was an Austro-Hungarian pianist and music teacher. A native of Budapest, she was a celebrated Viennese concert pianist. A student alongside Claude Debussy and a familiar of composers Johannes Brahms and Karl Goldmark, Basch-Mahler was a recognized and respected talent of the late 19th century Austrian-Hungarian music community. In 1928 she was awarded an honorary title by the President of Austria.
