Who was that clarinet player? Went to the San Francisco Symphony last night for Mendelssohn's Elijah. Two clarinet players and one was not Louis Baez. David Neuman played principal. Anyone know who the other may have been.?
Best description I can give: Looked young (but everyone looks young to me). Dark short hair. Medium build. Did not sit up straight as he played.

That sounds like Jerry Siemas (i'm not sure if that is the right spelling of the last name). He has been the acting Second Clarinet since David Breeden passed away. He plays a lot in the bay area in various ensembles.

It could also have been Ben Freimuth who is the bass clarinetist with the symphony, but has also stepped into the role of 2nd clarinetist on occasion. He is young.
