Re: Drucker- Corigliano Premiere

Drucker--fearless as always in a live performance. He could sight read difficult music from hand written manuscripts, didn't bother with expensive ligatures, played his Alelandais 1.03 mm mouthpiece on nearly everything, and smoked cigars between performances. He held his elite orchestral position longer than any other player on the planet, could play just about anything, and scared the daylights out of everybody with his recording of the Nielsen. On difficult passages, nobody played with more assurance and kinetic energy than Drucker. On clarinet he not only played in the Big Apple; he was the Big Apple.
