Concertino in A-minor op.14

Composer
Leo Portnoff (1875 - 1940)

Leo Portnoff (born 1875 in Kiev, died 1940 Florida, USA), musician, teacher, composer. He was a professor at the Stern Conservatory (Stern'sches Konservatorium) of music in Berlin, from 1906 to 1915. After World War Portnoff became conductor of one of the leading symphony orchestras in Sweden, where he also became teacher, and found time for numerous compositions. He arrived in USA in 1922 and became a US citizen in 1923, residing in Kings, New York. He later moved to Florida and taught music at the University of Miami. Portnoff was an original and dynamic creator of playing techniques on string instruments. Violin virtuoso Niccolò Paganini created techniques that shortened the painstaking study and practice required to master the instrument from ten to three years, using a secret method that is no longer known. Portnoff, anchored in the tradition of Paganini, apparently rediscovered the technique and developed a series of learning tasks that shorten the time to achievement in the art. Portnoff presented his invention to Albert Einstein in August 1931 at Caputh and received a letter of introduction.
