Awful to know. Have been listening to his superb recordings of Haydn piano sonatas. May he recover soon. Also superb are his Schubert and Beethoven recordings. All are top notch without exception.
Especially Haydn sonatas are physically dangerous.
Is this related to the awful fall he had in Liverpool which you reported ?
