Herbert Stahr is certainly one of my main inspirations. He was a stalwart in the clarinet section as assistant principal for many years. More often than not you will hear him in many fine Berlin Phil interpretations. His Beethoven and Schubert septets and octet recordings are among the very finest. A superb Brahms and Weber Quintet recordings appeared years ago on Philips but I believe only the Brahms made it to CD.

As well I had the great fortune of studying with him one summer and can say his humility and humor and relaxed attitude was truly a delight. He had a super ear but ..but in spite of his terrible english I have to admit I learned alot from him that summer in 84...

so much so I kept on playing. His sense of line and tone really shaped some great recordings in Berlin. I think Leister was pretty much in awe of him according to some freinds in Berlin who studied with him as well.

Alas he did not teach much ...maybe someone out there knows if he is still going?
His Beethoven Septet with the Berlin Philharmonic Octet is still the benchmark record. He was a very kind and relaxed man. There you go..
