I was a star in HS. All State, 1st chair All County and All City (Yonkers, NY). At Queens College there were 3 others in the orchestra of equal ability. My teacher (Russianoff) said he advised all of his students to get their ed. courses, and I said I already had started that. I had a 19 year career as a Band Director, mostly in Thompson in Northern Manitoba. Summers off allowed me to keep up my pro. playing in the NYC area, which I still do (except last 2 summers with the US border closed to driving in from Canada). I was also able to do a lot of soloing in Western Canada, so I kept up with my playing-- got my MM in performance in 1981.
I recently learned that my own HS band director had once played clarinet in the KC Symphony-- well, I had heard him practicing and knew he was good. In 12th grade he told me that if I wanted to go into performance to never take a Band Director job. The salary is a sure thing. He also said that I'd probably never leave teaching and he was right-- until I retired in '96. And oh yeah, I wrote the book.
