Twelvetrees 10 Posted September 7, 2007 One Italian music maestro dies, another arrives to take his place. The legendary conductor Claudio Abbado has cancelled all of his upcoming gigs for health reasons. http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5jO85a-...9x3Yd1VMr74KePQ Abbado had a nasty bout of stomach cancer in 2000 and had much of his digestive tract removed. I've got a good feeling about this one. I have to say that he looked gaunt at the Proms a fortnight ago, but he still got through over 100 minutes without flagging. Speaking selfishly, I'd hate to lose him when he still has so much to offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Octopus of Odstock 2,195 Posted November 18, 2007 Claudio Abbado - Italian maestro, suffered stomach cancer in 2000, recently canceled all appearances due to ill health. Claudio Abbado seems to be recovered and back at work. Oh. Although I'll keep an eye on him for a bit, that report looks like it means he's out of the Top 20 of my team. So back in the fold comes Rev. Billy Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted May 24, 2010 (edited) Conductor Claudio Abbado, mentioned several times before on DL, is unwell again, he is ill enough to have cancelled two much anticipated homecoming gigs. The wording of the article looks a bit ominous. Edited May 24, 2010 by Magere Hein Topic consolidated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
