Sudden death of international cellist
RIPWe have received reports of the death of Antonio Lysy, an international soloist who taught for 20 years at the University of California in Los Angeles. He had just completed a first visit to Argentina in five years.
The violist Ettore Causa writes:
There are no words that can describe the profound sadness and the sense of loss I feel with the cruel and premature departure of Antonio Lysy.
Antonio was a wonderful cellist, a dedicated teacher and a truly marvelous human being.
Everyone that knew him, will tell you that he had a very kind and gentle soul, he was a person full of love for life, a man with a great sense of humor who was incredibly elegant, classy and yet genuinely simple, someone who always showed both wisdom and character.
I have known Antonio for more than 30 years, I am immensely privileged to have been his friend and I am going to miss him terribly.
