In no way do I wish to diminish the contributions of the artists of memory discussed in this thread prior.
Personally, my first recording of classical clarinet was an album of the Mozart by Cahuzac that formed the basis of what, even to this day I consider a sound I wish to emulate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6bTrFNwCO0.
But I also believe that there are other factors at play that elevate these past player's celebrity, the primary one these additional factors, above their remarkable play, being-well--that they're no longer with us. Their, upon death, now finite body of work plays into emotional factors that are better described, I think, by others than myself:

Not that anyone here has sold today's top artists short, but I trust that in these current artist's ultimate passing, hopefully many years from now, that these modern players will too will take on a mystique that may elevate them above their living, no less able, virtuosic counterparts.
