Lev Tseitlin (Russian: Лев Моисеевич Цейтлин), (15 March 1881, Tbilisi - 9 January 1952, Moscow) was a violinist and a professor.

Biography

Tseitlin graduated from the Saint Petersburg Conservatory in 1901, where he studied with Leopold Auer. He then went to study with Eugène Ysaÿe in Brussels, and worked as a concertmaister in Orchestre Collone in Paris before returning to Russia in 1906. There in Moscow he first worked as an orchestra leader in Zimin Opera, and from 1908 till 1917 he was a concertmaster in Serge Koussevitzky’s symphony orchestra. From 1918 to 1920 he was a professor at the Institute of Music and Drama in Moscow, and from 1920 until the end of his life he was a professor and later a head of the violin department at the Moscow Conservatory.

It was on Tseitlin’s initiative that the First Symphony Ensemble Persimfans, a symphony orchestra without a conductor, was formed. This orchestra played an important role in Moscow's musical life during the group’s existence from 1922 to 1932. In the late-1940s early-1950s he suffered a devastating effect of the Russian antisemitic campaign, when he was stripped of his head of the department status and wasn't given new students for the last few years of his conservatory tenure.

As a teacher, Tseitlin raised a number of famous violinists. His students included Mark Zatulovsky, Boris Fishman, Avet Ter-Gabrielyan, Boris Belenky, Alexei Gorokhov, Samuil Furer and Boris Goldstein.
