I would be interested in surveying different opinions on this topic: opinions expressed by students and teachers alike. My personal experiences are as follows-seeing as everybody takes an intense interest in me. Ha ha! One teacher only took out his clarinet when he was totally exasperated with me and couldn't get through to me (my Italian was rudimentary). When he took his clarinet out of the case out of despair, I was torn between the knowledge that he was furious with me and knowing that I would rejoice in his absolutely heavenly playing (RIP Professore Cornetti). Another played all of the time, as this is the only time he ever practiced! Another-certainly the most famous of them-I never hear play a note. Students of the renowned Leon Russianoff told me they never heard him play a note. He had, I believe, given up playing at this point. Like in all things, I suppose a balance must be struck. Your opinions please? Those of students are, I would say, are even more important than those of teachers.
