| Paolo Longinotti Everyone knows his etude book. But did you know that he was principal in the Suisse Romande Ochestra from 1939 till his death at age 53 in January of 1953. That means he is on all of the recordings of Ernest Ansermet until his death

As much as I like Glantz and Vacchiano, I consider Longinotti the superior orchestral player. He is that good. And his section mates wre superb too. Ansermet was the greatest expert on wind playing and was a trumpeter as well as a clarinetist and violinist
