In Memoriam Lynn Harrell

I am enormously saddened at the passing of Lynn Harrell. He has been a top concert cellist for the past 50 years and TMAF was fortunate to have him as a faculty member in our first season. During TMAF 2019, Mr. Harrell reprised his role as principal cello fifty years after he served as principal cellist in the Cleveland Orchestra under George Szell. The students at TMAF had a rare opportunity to learn from this master musician. The fellow faculty members enjoyed his incredible musicianship and good company. On behalf of TMAF, I send our condolences to his family and loved ones. We will miss this dear friend.
