There are plenty of Clarinetists who don't play Copland well - you have to have a good clue of Jazz to play it well. No comment on Frost as I haven't heard him play, but in general the Copland can be played like a technical exercise without a bit of soulfullness.
I'm of the school of thought that while the Copland Concerto is certainly influenced by jazz, it is not jazz.
I have heard more Clarinetists who play it too free (for my liking) than play it too straight. Actually, my two peeves with most clarinetist who play it are 1.) The first section is played way too slow and 2.) The cadenza is played way too fast without much regard for phrasing and thought behind why Copland placed those accents where he did.
