A really kind and lovely man who absolutely knew his job and helped to make Symphony Hall what it is.
Absolutely!!
This is such sad news.
Chris was a great colleague, knew the business inside out, and as Raymond says he was one of the kindest people you could ever wish to know.
My thoughts are with his family and friends.
It was my privilege to work with Chris for over 25 years. He was loved and respected by his colleagues at Symphony Hall and in the music industry nationally and internationally. Chris was a kind and generous man who will be hugely missed by everyone. I owe him a huge debt of gratitude for his hard work, commitment and friendship over a quarter of a century at Symphony Hall. My thoughts are with Debbie, Kathryn and Sarah and their family.
Sending love to the family. Also to the Symphony Hall Family. xx
