Leo Zeitlin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lev Mordukhov Tseitlin (Лев Цейтлин 18841930) was a Russian composer.[1] He emigrated to the United States.[2] His best known work, and only recorded work, is Eli Zion - a paraphrase for piano and cello "on a folk theme and trope of 'Song of Songs'".
