The Recording Academy Releases Statement on the Passing of Janos Starker
The Recording Academy has released the following statement on the passing of Janos Starker:
"GRAMMY winner Janos Starker was a masterful cellist known for playing with technical perfection and creating an impeccable sound. With a career that spanned more than half a century, Starker performed countless concerts with numerous orchestras and symphonies around the world, - and was one of the most recorded cellists in the industry. His deep passion for music was evident not only in his performances, but as an educator as well, teaching new generations the art and precision of performing classical music. Starker's talent and contributions to our industry will be greatly missed, and our thoughts go out to his family, friends and students as we mourn the loss of a truly gifted and giving artist."
