Images are starting to come in of Rod Franks, the London Symphony Orchestra trumpet player and former principal, who died last night so tragically in a motorway crash in Nottinghamshire. He is pictured with Valery Gergiev, the LSO’s outgoing chief conductor, typically for them both in an airport.
Tributes will follow.

A huge loss to us, I was talking to him the other day and was looking forward to working with him for the next few days. So incredibly tragic.
