Congratulations once again everyone, you did an amazing job! https://youtu.be/ZL0fpjQVAX0

Rosamunde is sending our heartfelt condolences to all whose lives were touched by violinist, teacher and wonderful person, Yehonatan Berick. Gregarious, generous, inspiring and empowering, he is already dearly missed. Rosamunde is so thankful that he was willing to share his gifts as guest faculty in 2014 to start the Festival of 3 faculty concerts. Those performances are still emblazoned in our memories, as is his unforgettably infectious smile.
