Our Musicians

Robert Zelickman
Clarinet
"I wear many hats.  In addition to playing classical music, I play contemporary and Klezmer music.  I also conduct and lecture on music at UCSD where I have been a lecturer since 1983.”  For Robert, he never had any other thought than that of being a musician.  Even in kindergarten, when asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, he replied “a conductor.” Once the teacher realized he didn't mean a train conductor, she handed him a pencil and had him conduct his first song sung by a room of kindergartners.”It’s in my soul to perform.”
