He mhst have fallen foul of Mr Putin.
Another victim of “Sudden Death Syndrome”?
We all know about sudden death in Russia. It is never natural causes.
I am shocked by the cynicism, ignorance and disrespectful tone of the comments here. Adik Askarovich was a wonderful conductor and generous, kind human being who tragically died of a heart attack, a complication of diabetes which he suffered from. He was in the prime of his career with several big engagements coming up, and his family are no doubt in shock about his sudden death. Have some respect and stop politicising everything, come on.
