I heard David Shifrin play repeatedly, in the late 70's and early 80's, in
rehearsal, symphony concerts, recital.

You're right. His raw talent and dedication were both ALWAYS evident. What a
player!

And a thoroughly decent human being too. I owe most of my personal concept of
clarinet playing - even now - to David's example.
