Mark Weinstein asked:

<<<BTW --- HMMMM ... having attended the Chicago Clarinet Trio's 1999 DePaul
Clarinet Workshop ... and having watched a talented young clarinetist be
scolded by Yeh over an air leak .... are you sure that Yeh was leaking air ?
I can recall Yeh vividly ...accusing the young clarinetist of "heating the
room" unnecessarily. He talked of how any lair eak was a REAL waste
.....>>>

Yes, I am absolutely certain. No question. From my seat in the balcony
beside the stage, I was no more than 25 feet from him.

This happened *only* during the solo passages in the Beethoven on the Bb--I
did not hear any leakage when Mr. Yeh (brilliantly) played Eb in the Chavez.
Of course, there was a whole lot going on at that time, so it may have
occurred beyond my hearing -- but I do not think so.
