Leo Ornstein was a Russian-born American pianist and composer, a radical modernist figure whose early performances of dissonant music caused a sensation in the 1910s. This Columbia disc, catalogue 2449, contains his 'Etude on Black Keys' and a Chopin Impromptu. Ornstein's recordings are uncommon and of interest to collectors of early twentieth-century piano music.
