Artist Biography
Clarinetist Richard Stoltzman has been one of the most distinguished players of his instrument in the 20th and 21st centuries. He has been unusually successful in combining jazz and classical careers. At the Marlboro Music School and Festival, Stoltzman made the acquaintance of a group of collaborators that included pianist Peter Serkin and violinist Ida Kavafian. Together with Serkin and Kavafian, he formed the chamber group TASHI in 1973. In 1986, Stoltzman became the first wind player to win the Avery Fisher Prize, given for outstanding performance by an American musician. In 2019, he issued an album recorded jointly with his wife, jazz marimbist Mika Stoltzman, titled Palimpsest. In 2023, Stoltzman returned on an album of works by composer Anthony Iannaccone. By that time, his recording catalog comprised some 75 items.
