Very sad. He is one of my favorite conductors, with some awesome CDs on the PentaTone label with Julia Fischer and Russian National Orchestra. His Shostakovich 5&9 Symphonies on Pentatone is a favorite among audiophiles. His Tchaikowski CD with Julia Fischer shows his extreme piano playing talent.  A very passionate, precise conductor who knows the power of an orchestra and not afraid to use it. I hope they're ready for him upstairs...
