French jazz violinist Didier Lockwood, whose eclectic career spanned more than four decades and the world's most prestigious festivals and concert halls, has died this Sunday, from heart attack. He was 62.
As a composer and an improviser while performing, Lockwood enjoyed crossing musical genres, from jazz-rock to classical. He was known for experimenting with different sounds on the electric violin.
He's survived by his wife, French soprano Patricia Petibon, and three daughters.

From Dave Brubeck to Magma, from Miles Davis to Jacques Higelin, in many bands or solo, he was just great. RIP.
