clifford_thornton Posted June 23, 2014 Report Posted June 23, 2014 The French saxophonist, visual artist, and scholar Gilles Laheurte has passed on after a long illness, according to family and friends (via FB). Not just a "true disciple" of Steve Lacy, he was also quite an original. I first heard of his work through Joe Giardullo, another one trying to extend the Lacy lineage. May he rest in peace. Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted June 23, 2014 Report Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) We had been "email" friends for over 10 years or more; was a very kind and generous man. We bonded over our shared passion for the music of Steve Lacy and Masahiko Togashi. I knew he had been ill for some time, but it was still a sad shock to hear.
