"A Russian military plane carrying 92 people, including dozens of Red Army Choir singers, dancers and orchestra members, crashed into the Black Sea on its way to Syria on Sunday, killing everyone on board, Russian authorities said."
This is a huge loss for the music world, as well as a tragedy for all involved. Thanks 2016.
