RIP Paul Shelden

I had this in the musicians beating covid19 thread, which made no sense, because he didn't beat it, so I decided to put it here. I never knew he played with BS&T!

When reading the NY Times listing of a thousand people who died of COVID-19, I was deeply saddened to find the concert clarinetist Paul Shelden listed among the many people that died of this terrible plague. He was the head of the Brooklyn College Music Dept. when I went there, and led the Jazz Ensemble there. He was a nice and intelligent person, and a great clarinetist.
