Leonid Roizman was a key figure for domestic organ music of the 20th century. A student of the founder of Russian organ school Alexander Goedicke, Roizman also applied much of his effort to teaching and brought up dozens of students, many of which are successful concert performers in Russia and abroad. Roizman was an imitator of many organ concert halls in this country and inspired contemporary composers to create new works for the instrument.
