Leo Ornstein (ca. December 11, 1895 – February 24, 2002), born in Ukraine (then a part of pre-Soviet Imperial Russia), was one of the leading American experimental composers and pianists of the early twentieth century.

Ornstein was the first important composer to make extensive use of the tone cluster. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Leo+O
