Ferruccio Busoni (1 April 1866 – 27 July 1924) was an Italian composer, pianist, conductor, editor, writer, and piano teacher. Busoni was an outstanding (if sometimes controversial) pianist from an early age. He began composing in his early years in a late romantic style, and later developed a more individual one, often with elements of atonality. His compositions include works and transcriptions for piano, chamber music, vocal, orchestral works and also operas. Busoni's impact on music was more through those who studied piano and composition with him, and through his writings on music, than through his compositions themselves.
