We have been informed that German pianist and conductor Lars Vogt died this afternoon from a sudden worsening of his cancer.
Lars was 51 years old.
He is survived by his wife, Anna Reszniak-Vogt, and three children.
Just three weeks ago, he spoke positively on this site about balancing his cancer care with pursuing the piano whenever possible. He only received the diagnosis in March 2021.
Lars was a wonderful artist and a beautiful human being whose warmth will be long remembered.
Alongside his career as a performer, he became musical director of the Royal Northern Sinfonia in September 2015, occupying the same position in 2020 at the Orchester de Chambre de Paris.
May his precious soul rest in peace.
