Bronisław Mitman was a Polish and Peruvian violinist of Jewish descent. He was born in Warsaw on May 13, 1901, the son of clarinetist and conductor Henryk Mitman.
From 1911 he studied with Stanisław Barcewicz at the Warsaw Conservatory. Between 1918 and 1920, he continued his training in Berlin with Carl Flesch. As a teenager, he appeared as a soloist with the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra under Zdzisław Birnbaum, and in 1918 briefly served as concertmaster at a Warsaw theatre.
Mitman subsequently worked in Germany. In 1922 he briefly played in a piano trio at a Berlin café with Grigory Piatigorsky and his brother, Leopold Mitman, who later worked in New York as an accompanist pianist. At the turn of the 1930s, Mitman was concertmaster of the Cologne Radio Orchestra.
From 1933 to 1938 he worked in the Soviet Union, first as concertmaster of the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra under conductor Eugen Szenkar. He later led the State Quartet of the Georgian SSR, alongside violist Luarsab Iashvili and cellist Georgy Taktakishvili.
In 1938 Mitman emigrated to South America. At the invitation of conductor Theo Buchwald, he became concertmaster of the newly established National Symphony Orchestra of Peru. He also taught at the National Conservatory of Peru. Mitman died in Lima on November 11, 1954.
