Leonid Knina. Born 1842 in Prague, where he received his muscial education. From 1857, he concertized across Austria, Hungary and Russia. In 1863 Knina first settled in Vienna; then in 1866 at St. Petersburg, where he dedicated himself predominantly to teaching. His music school in the city opened into 1870, and enjoyed great popularity in its time. Unfortunately ill-heath forced him to moved in 1882 to Tiflis, where he also created a new music school. His school apparently still thrives to this day and continues to prepare trainee pianists and musicians. Knina wrote more than 200 compositions primarily in a salon style for the piano, plus two text books on the development and performance of piano music. Date of death unknown at this stage.
