I'm so very thankful to have had Yehudi as a mentor, champion, friend and colleague. I miss him and cherish all the memories and my souvenirs of our friendship and collaboration. His profound genuine kindness and true musicianship matched my own which moves my missing him even more deeply and profoundly.

The greatest composer at his most beloved subject matter; one of the greatest violonists on one of the worlds best instruments and a very wonderful, heart melting singer .... What a precious moment when all these came together ....

I only heard today of Mira's passing. I was privileged to be at this performance of 'Erbarme Dich' for Pope John Paul with Sinfonia Varsovia in the courtyard of Castelgandolfo. A never to be forgotten moment.

With this unforgettable occasion very much in mind, ''Erbarme Dich mein Gott'' was performed in Westminster Abbey with Arianna Zukerman, Daniel Hope and the English String Orchestra at the Memorial Service for Lord Menuhin in June 1999
