 Idolizing the past
Author: DaphnisetChloe

Why do clarinet players (and even musicians in general) idolize past players so much? Wouldn't it be more useful to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of old famous artists in order to learn from their playing? Respecting their artistry and honoring their memory is of course essential, however I hazard a guess that by viewing them through rose-tinted glasses we fail to differentiate the good from the bad and therefore do not remember them for the actual qualities of their playing that stood out as exceptional.
