Sounds like a kind-hearted man, in addition to being a fine musician.  For some reason the article fails to mention that his life was in vain since he did not play in HIP fashion.   :P

He was a fine musician, he will be missed.  That inspires me to create another thread...

One of the key people who fostered my interest in chamber music (which is now paramount among forms, for me). So it goes. :-\

Sad news. May God have mercy on his soul.
