Re: Cleveland orchestra principal or did we miss something

Considering that Frank Cohen and the current music director has significant differences, I think they are looking for someone very specific in both style of clarinet playing and musicianship.

I think it was the Principal Trombone position in Cleveland that went through something like 6-8 different auditions before someone was appointed. The clarinet chair could go through something similar.

From what I have heard, Ben (who properly won the audition) was not awarded tenure and returned to Seattle where he was. I think one of Yehuda Gilad's students has been currently playing with Cleveland. It would not surprise me if they just hired him as they hired the new Bass clarinetist.

I agree with the fact that there are many great clarinetists capable of filling the chair but I do think an orchestra like Cleveland has the luxury of being very picky.
