RIP

[edit]

Pocket Opera sent out this announcement today to its subscribers:

Donald Pippin
​8 December 1925 - 7 July 2021

It is with deep and profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Founder, Donald Pippin, at age 95, on Wednesday 7 July 2021, at his home in San Francisco.​

Donald leaves behind a rich legacy as an artist, mentor, and impresario, whose contributions to the Bay Area arts scene are unparalleled. The entire Pocket Opera family will spend the coming weeks reflecting on all he has meant to us.

We will find an appropriate place and time to celebrate his life, so that his friends, his fans, and his family alike can come together to honor this great man. For now, as we all process this loss, we are deeply grateful that his passing was painless and peaceful. His last days were spent listening to music, his constant companion in life.​​
