I agree. Sitting next to Jim Thompson for three years in lessons was worth ten-fold the actual instruction. Getting to hear him live with the ASO and side by side when we got together was invaluable. I can say the same for my time with Leon Rapier. Most times, during the journey of mimicking others or trying to replicate someone else's sound, we find our own voice.
