As for Ricardo probably being the most famous clarinetist. I wouldn't say that.

Oh? Can you name another famous clarinetist playing a Festival? That <i>was</i> the question.

As for Ricardo being famous - he is as famous as most other orcestral clarinetists. Outside of the "clarinet" world, the only clarinetist people may know about is maybe Stoltzman. Just as most people can name 2 flutists & 3 tenors. Doesn't mean the others aren't "famous", just not as well known outside an immediate circle.

Quick - go down to a classical music store and ask any customer there to name the clarinetists of the Chicago, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Boston, or NY Symphonies ... (apologies to all the other Symphony orchestras out there - but you get my drift).
