RE: An Article That Changed My Outlook

Sadly, Mr. Bloom passed away a few years ago. He was a great inspiration to me as well as many others. I had the privilege some years back of participating in a concert which he conducted on Cranberry Island in Maine. We did the Dvorak Serenade and the Mozart c minor Serenade. I can remember the rehearsals like it was yesterday.

Mr. Bloom had definite ideas about clarinet playing as well. He was toying around at one point with teaching the clarinet, but never (to my knowledge) took on any students.

His widow, Sally, has made many recordings available through Boston Records. I would urge everone on this list to listen to them.
