Wonderful songwriter. He'll be sadly missed by his fellow professionals and anyone else who loves his great melodies and harmonic sophistication. No one better, imo.
One of my favourites, in addition to all the great songs already mentioned by Johnny. And umpteen others that could be listed, of course. The theme song from the film of the same name:

He was an amazing composer. I hadn't realised that he was in his 90s - I thought he was a bit younger. Didn't he get a Polar Prize some years ago? I seem to remember something about Frida being his "date" for the event. Am I imagining things?
It'd be nice to see a bunch of his songs returning to the charts.
