Hamish Milne (1939-2020)

Sad to hear of the death earlier this week after a long illness of the Scottish/English pianist Hamish Milne, who was especially known and admired for his promotion of the music of Nikolai Medtner (1880-1951).

RIP.

Best,

Alistair

Curiously, another of Hamish's students just sent me a .pdf of that very transcription!
