Leif Segerstam is primarily known as a conductor, generally ranked among the most prominent from Finland in the latter twentieth and early twenty first centuries.

But he is also a composer with a massive output, making the cataloging of his music difficult. For instance, by summer , he had written 81 symphonies, 18 of them having been composed or completed in that year alone, typically writing the same piece in different scorings, using aleatoric methods involving less-complex and less-specific notation. Still, his output contains countless orchestral and choral works, concertos, songs, string quartets, and instrumental pieces.
