I just heared of the passing of Ralph Towner and feel really sad about this terrible news.
I was very excited to see an announcement last year, that he and his congenial partner Paul McCandless would play a concert together in my region, but sadly it was cancelled. Last chance to see them live as we know now.
Ralph was such an inspiration for me. He was the definition of an open minded, complete musician - composer, improviser, classical player, inventor. When I look at all the instruments laying around here, it looks like a photo from an oregon concert..... I don't think, I would have taken the path towards trying to be a musician without his inspiration.
I'm really sad that I missed so many opportunities to see him in a concert over the years. Thank you for all this and your wonderfull music, Ralph!
