Eric Ericson, world famous conductor and choir leader, has passed away at the age of 94. Some might remember him indirectly as he was responsible for arranging and conducting Ingmar Bergman's The Magic Flute. Me, I've come to appreciate his interpretations of Bach's oratorios, in particular the St Matthew Passion recording from 1994, arranged using contemporary instruments only.
He will be missed.
