Mario Bernardi (Kirkland Lake Aug 20th 1930 – Toronto June 2nd 2013)
It was reported overnight that the eminent Canadian conductor Mario Bernardi has died. He was the founding conductor of the National Arts Centre Orchestra, and was conductor of the Calgary Philharmonic and the CBC Radio Orchestra.  Here is a very good obituary of Bernardi in the CBC News website: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/story/2013/06/03/obit-bernardi-naco-founder.html
To remember Bernardi, here is a video clip of a CBC News segment on the passing of Mario Bernardi:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jZULpNTjRQ
