Did this already get posted? Passed away November 16 at a young 67. A great talent.

The Facebook post where I learned of it said (if I recall correctly) "suddenly." That limits the range of likely causes, just as "after a long illness" often means "cancer."

Same age as me. Makes you realize how fragile we are. Great player, great teacher from the sounds of it.
