Olly Wilson
Composer Olly Wilson died on March 12, 2018 at age 80. He was a professor at UC Berkeley for many years, a fine composer, and, from Trevor Weston's article, linked below, a tremendous teacher and great human.
I've heard only one of Wilson's works over the years, a performance of Hold On at Berkeley Symphony some years ago. I wish SFS would champion, and perform, his music.
