A Celebration of Janos Starker in Memories & Music: Toronto, July 27-28

A Message from Gabriella Starker

It is overwhelming as well as comforting to read and hear the outpouring of respect, memories and emotion since my father left us. I am still emotionally unable to look at all of it. I know I will eventually.

My father was my inspiration, my mentor, my strongest and most demanding critic and my great friend. I know that most of you would say exactly the same. His devotion and passion for those he taught and inspired was all encompassing. Nothing gave him greater joy or pleasure.

Personally I am reeling from the loss of my daddy, even the detail that he was the last family I could speak with in Hungarian when it came to the basics and not the intellectual pursuits.

Life without his physical presence will be a huge challenge to get used to, not that I am going to try. I appreciate being able to share these thoughts.
