December 9, 2007 | Norman Levine passes.
Regrets. Sad to hear of the passing of legendary mandolin catalyst, Norman Levine. This great man had inarguably, huge impact on the contemporary history of the mandolin. Publisher of the long running, Mandolin Quarterly, financial and spiritual impresario of the mandolin world, there are many of today's topnotch players who say they owe their career to Norman.
A huge heart for education, Levine single handedly spearheaded scholarship funds and unselfish personal financial contributions to upcoming artists through workshops, clinics, and concerts. We are very lucky to have had him, and we will most certainly miss him.
