I'd noticed Mr Hawley on the list- good to see Curtis allowing equal opportunity for a fellow surfer!

I recognize some of those names, especially a few that studied with me at the Eastern Music Festival. Hi Richie, I remember you too! Pretty impressive list. ESP http://eddiesclarinet.com

When names are next to 2 different dates - what does that mean?

David, I assume multiple degrees (ie bachelors and masters)? I wondered that myself.

Who currently teaches clarinet at Curtis? Is it necessarily always somebody from the Philadelphia Orchestra?

Does anyone wonder why Ricardo Morales is not on the list, after all, he did audition for Curtis? He wasn't accepted at the time. It was the same year he played the Neison Concerto and won the concerto competition at the Eastern Music Festival playing it perfectly and of course musicially by memory. I think he was 17 then, could have been 16 though. I guess he just was'nt good enough. I couldn't believe it when he told me :-). This is a pretty impressive list though without him.

Neither was Elsa Verdehr - she auditioned for Tony G, and he accepted her, but he wanted to change her playing around. Thought she did play quite fine though.

Ed, Ricardo recently soloed with an Orchestra who loved his playing, whom when he auditioned for them at age 18/19, didn't make it past the first round.

He was amazing then, but wasn't what they were looking for.

Their mistake......

What a fascinating list. Thanks for posting it.

>>Does anyone wonder why Ricardo Morales is not on the list, after all, he did audition for Curtis? He wasn't accepted at the time.>>

Another good reason to have a Plan B! Ricardo Morales didn't get discouraged and give up when Curtis wouldn't have him -- and we all know how that turned out.

I doubt anyone has ever given up for not making Curtis.

Marcellus didn't make Curtis either (lost out to Drucker), and he did OK...

Too big a generalization, David -- I know people who quit playing after a teacher or a school rejected them.

If anyone gave up after not making the first round or not making the semi or the finals at an audition most players would never have gotten a job in their life. That included getting into any school as well. Especially Curtis that usually only took one player each year on most ww instruments.
