Lovely playing!
Beautifully done by both artists.
Very sad- a huge loss. Does anyone know what type of cancer he had?
Huge loss! Great musician!
So sad to hear. Grateful to hear this.
Yehonatan was one of the sweetest men I ever had the pleasure of knowing. This news is so sad. My deepest condolences to his family.
