Stanley Drucker, principal clarinetist of the New York Philharmonic for sixty years and one of America's truly legendary classical instrumentalists, is retiring at the end of this season. My review of his spectacular performance of Aaron Copland's Clarinet Concerto last night with the Philharmonic conducted by Lorin Maazel can be found at Classical Source. Friday's New York Times ran a terrific piece on Drucker by Daniel Wakin.
