Loren Kitt retires from NSO

Loren Kitt, the National Symphony Orchestra's principal clarinetist, has been with the NSO since 1970. He's retiring this year, and will be honored at the NSO's June 9 performance at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.. The Washington Post's Sunday Style and Arts section (published on Saturday) has an interview with him conducted by Anne Midgette. I haven't been able to get the entire extremely long url to work, but if you go to the Post's entertainment/music page, here,
https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/music/
just scroll down to the article titled, "Leaving the NSO, a veteran clarinetist reflects on the orchestra's ups and downs."

He's quite circumspect about those ups and downs in this interview, but does mention that he hopes the Kennedy Center will improve its accoustics. Amen to that!
