Leslie
Craven is currently Principal clarinettist of the Orchestra
of Welsh National Opera and is widely regarded as one of Britain’s
most accomplished and respected clarinettists in every musical genre.
After
many years performing with London’s major orchestras and for
T.V. and film sessions in the major studios, he settled in Wales in 1993
to enjoy a more pleasant lifestyle and to be part of W.N.O. - one of the
world’s leading Opera companies.
He is recognized as one of the foremost teachers of clarinet not only in
U.K. but worldwide and he has written a pedagogical book to help clarinettists
and many articles for magazines and journals both in the U.K. and abroad.
Leslie gives master classes in many notable establishments and consultations
for mouthpieces and lessons in his studio at home.
