Gewandhaus cellist, 36, killed in road accident
mainThe Leipzig opera audience was informed before last night’s Wagner performance that cellist Hendrik Zwiener had died in a tragic road accident.
An orchestra member for ten years, Hendrik was a human rights activist with his own foundation that campaigned against notable acts of injustice.
An expert mountain cyclist, he was struck on a main road by a heavy goods vehicle while returning home from the orchestra.
The final wish of a fallen Gewandhaus cellist.
