He was 86. The cause was the coronavirus. 周一，钢琴家傅聪在伦敦的一家医院去世。他出生于中国，在伦敦生活多年，以对肖邦、德彪西和莫扎特的细腻诠释而闻名。他的父亲是著名翻译家和作家（傅雷），他写给儿子傅聪的信影响了一整代中国读者。傅聪因感染新冠病毒离世，享年86岁。 In 1981, a volume of letters written by Mr. Fou’s father, primarily to Mr. Fou, was published in China. Full of advice, encouragement, life teachings and stern paternal love, the book, “Fu Lei’s Family Letters,” became a best seller in China. 1981年，傅雷写给家人的书信被汇编成书在中国出版。这本《傅雷家书》中的书信主要是写给傅聪的，里面充满忠告、鼓励、人生教诲和严厉的父爱，在中国成为了畅销书。 “My father had a saying that ‘First you must be a person, then an artist, and then a musician, and only then can you be a pianist,’” Mr. Fou once recalled in an interview. “Even now, I believe in this order — that it should be this way and that I am this way.” 傅聪在采访中回忆道，“我爸爸有句名言就是，‘得先做人，其次是做艺术家，然后是做音乐家，只有这样最后才能做一名钢琴家’。我到现在都对这个次序深以为然。就应该是这个顺序，我也是这样过来的。” Mr. Fou remained devoted to music in his later years, playing piano for hours every day even as his fingers grew frail. It was a love that he invoked in interviews, alongside nuggets of wisdom from his father. 傅聪在晚年仍然保有对音乐的热爱，即便手指日渐无力，也还是每天都要弹几个小时琴。他在采访中一再提到这种热爱，还有那些父亲带给他的点滴智慧。 “When I was very young, I wrote to my father from Poland that I was sad and lonely,” he once recalled. “He wrote back: ‘You could never be lonely. Don’t you think you are living with the greatest souls of the history of mankind all the time?’”“Now that’s how I feel, always,” Mr. Fou said. 傅聪曾回忆道，“小时候，我在波兰给父亲写信，说我很难过，也很孤独。他回信说：‘你永远不会孤独。古今的名著，时时刻刻给你精神上的养料！’”“现在我感受到了，一向如此，”傅聪说。
