Boston Camerata mourns keyboardist

Boston Camerata mourns keyboardist

The pioneering early music group has posted:

We mourn the passing of Jim Nicolson, one of Boston’s early music pioneers: musician, impresario, and one of the first participants in Camerata concerts. His benevolent, welcoming presence in our community was a constant boon to the music we love, and to its practitioners. We say goodbye, sadly, even as we salute a life well lived.
