The Co-Managing Editor (Jill) who picks features as well as the NYT Front Page stuff is my sister-in-law.

For real.....

But it's more likely that Clarinetists are just doing cool stuff! It can't just always be about Singers, Pianists, and Fiddle players.

Love the description of Paquito D'Rivera's sound: "gorgeous: strong but mellow and almost entirely free of squeaks."

Best regards,

I can't figure out if that's meant to be a compliment or a slap! Or maybe the reviewer thinks squeaks are ubiquitous among professionals after a previous exposure to the clarinet limited to listening to a grammar school band....
