I hold a 56 year record with the International Clarinet Association (previously the ICS/Clarinetwork) as being the only Clarinet Teacher under 30 years to have taught a Winner in their Young Artist Competition, which was up to age 27. I was 29 at that time. He was my student since 5th grade.


In 1992 I taught 17 year old Michael Rescorla who won 1st Runner up in that International Clarinet Competition. I have also taught 3 Winners of the ICA Competitions including a College Sophomore who was an Orchestral Audition 1st Runner up Winner competing against 4 College Clarinet Professors who had Doctorates and was the youngest contestant by 6 years (Eddie Sundra who is 2nd Clarinetist of the Richmond Symphony).


 I have toured China twice with Orchestra, and Europe over 12 times as Professor/Clinician/Soloist. In 2018 I was the first American Clarinetist to teach in Croatia (Music Festival in Croatia). Was featured in the 40th CASS (British Clarinet Society) as Soloist and Clinician. Performed with Fmr. Principal Clarinetist of Royal Philharmonic, and the Philharmonia Orchestra. Professor Whight who I performed a Mendelssohn Concert Piece with, performed in the Soundtracks of Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings.

 

My career has spanned over the past 37 years as an International Clarinet Soloist, Orchestral Clarinetist,  top Pedagogue. In 1996, I was chosen to replace Philadelphia Orchestra's Principal Clarinetist Anthony Gigliotti as Clarinet Faculty of the FAME Music Festival in Lawrenceville NJ. In 2014, I  toured with members of the Hong Kong Philharmonic and the Pizazz Orchestra to perform in Shenzhen, China. Recently, I served as Principal Clarinetist for the Concert for Peace at the Philadelphia Kimmel Center and at the Carnegie Hall Stern Auditorium.
