I have had the same experience twice very recently. At the Clarinet
Cornucopia, at Northern Illinois University, Russ Dagon gave a Master class (It was a
great class BTW). Scads of really good clarinet playing.

Then, last Saturday, I went to DePaul University to attend a Master class
conducted by Alfred Prinz (again, another great opportunity). The level of
playing there was also magnificent.

Mr. Prinz made the point that there are FAR too many clarinetists - which of
course did not go over well in a recital hall full of clarinet majors.
