The Slovenian violinist Igor Ozim died yesterday in Salzburg, aged 92.

After winning the 1953 ARD Competition Munich, he became one of the most sought-after teachers, working mostly from Cologne and Berne. His students included Patricia Kopatchinskaja, Richard Tognetti, Gwendolyn Masin, Rachel Kolly d’Alba and Daniel Auner, as well as concertmasters of several leading orchestras. He was a great advocate of the Elgar concerto.
