Passings

I want to echo Alex Ross in mourning three passings this weeekend: Robert Hilferty, Michael Steinberg and Merce Cunningham. I could eulogize the latter two (whom I did not know personally) and recount some truly hilarious stories of Robert Hilferty, but I will just let their names stand as the sadness their loss represents. The world is lighter once again.
