Former STLSO concertmaster passes away

For fans & followers of the STLSO:

Jacques Israelievitch, former St. Louis Symphony concert master (1978-88) has died at age 67. Following his tenure here he was concertmaster of the Toronto Symphony for 20 years. Sadly, no info I've noticed locally. Full bio here: http://www.israelievitch.com/index.html

 Here's a video performance of Israelievitch performing Ravel's "Kaddish" at the Sheldon (no date available)...
