Composer
Leo Ornstein
A futurist enfant terrible in 1915 who then quietly wrote music until he was a hundred.

His performances of works by avant-garde composers and his own innovative and even shocking pieces made him a cause célèbre on both sides of the Atlantic. The bulk of his experimental works were written for piano.
