When John Mack was teaching at CIM the original statement may have been slightly truer than today. My son graduated in clarinet from CIM after study with Frank Cohen as a clarinet teacher and John Mack as a chamber music coach and most certainly did not land a great job - there just aren't very many of them compared to the number of graduates. He's had some small success in performing in Tokyo, but has shifted to conducting - which he found he loved even more than playing - and is studying at the Tokyo Gedai University.

Of course, with that shift, talk about even smaller chances ...
