I would like to correct an assumption made by me in a recent post
requesting the name of the clarinetist that played the solo in the above
mentioned inquiry.

I have been informed that Ted Oien did not play that concert as I so
stated.

Larry Liberian , asst. Principal, was the performer that concert. As the
above post cited, the clarinet solo was beautifully played.

I feel that the assumption must be corrected and most humbly apologize to
Mr. Liberson.

The honor was his and credit should be given where it is due!!

I also wonder how often this happens
