Alan Kay

I am on the faculties of Juilliard, Manhattan School of Music, and Stony Brook University. I am principal clarinet of Orpheus Chamber Orchestra.

Passing on our knowledge and experience to others should be among the most important responsibilities of seasoned professionals in the music industry. I believe in well-roundedness: that is, become a musician first, with the clarinet as your medium, and be able to (1) program and play a great solo recital, (2) play a concerto with orchestra, (3) play chamber music of all types, (4) play new and recently composed music with understanding and style, (5) play a respectable and winning orchestra audition, (6) speak knowledgeably and with sophistication about the music you're playing.
