Cool! I'm glad you've created this thread outside your log. I'm really curious to see what's next.

The maxim "Those who can't, teach" does not apply here - Mr. Rosand teaches at the Curtis School of Music, and clearly shows a command of his instrument as well as a sensitivity to the composer's intentions.
I think I've heard that maxim among musicians more than any other field; the idea that a successful performer has so much work they don't teach on the side as most musicians do. Plus the best performers don't always make the best teachers. However, anyone who teaches (or attends) Curtis is definitely at the top of their game!
