Being Taught By "AL GALLODORO"

Until he passed, Al was an adjunct professor at Hartwick Collegein Oneonta, NY, Dr. Al Gallodoro also has openings for private students, ages 10 and up. 

Besides from being on staff at Hartwick College, Al’s private teaching had extended to people of every age, with students coming from as far away as Boston, NYC, Toronto, andWashington DC.

Al was a clinician/artist for the Selmer Company from 1955 until 1980, giving clinics at schools and universities across the country.  His latest clinic was at Rayburn Music in January of 2007!

His influence and inspiration affected innumerable players who heard him. One young man is Robert Coleman, co-principal clarinetist with the St. Louis Symphony who recalls that Al Gallodoro was his hero and inspiration when he was in high school. That same influence was felt by many, many other young saxophone/clarinet players. Amongst others inspired arePaquito D’Rivera and Benny Golson, Urbano Meideros.
