Post by aldona »

Breaking news just in...

http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2009 ... 776748.htm
A member of the West Australian Youth Orchestra has died from a suspected drug overdose while on tour in Hong Kong.

The 21-year-old man was found dead in his hotel room early Saturday morning and a second member of the orchestra is being treated in hospital.
:shock: :( :?:

to all our West Australian friends on this forum...

hope you're OK (please don't let this be anyone we know!!!) :shock:

and our thoughts are with you...
“all great composers wrote music that could be described as ‘heavenly’; but others have to take you there. In Schubert’s music you hear the very first notes, and you know that you’re there already.” - Steven Isserlis
