John Bruce Yeh
Biography
Assistant principal clarinetist of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, John Bruce Yeh is the orchestra's longest-serving clarinetist in history. In 1977, at the age of just 19, Yeh was invited by conductor Georg Solti to join the Chicago Symphony as solo bass clarinetist. In 1979, Yeh founded the Chicago Pro Musica chamber ensemble; he remains its director. That group's first recording -- of Stravinsky's L'histoire du Soldat -- won the 1985 Grammy Award for Best New Classical Artist. The year 1979 also saw Yeh elevated to assistant principal clarinetist and E flat clarinetist, a position he continued to hold as of the early 2020s. Yeh released his debut album, Ebony Concerto, in 1993. In 2023, Yeh released the album Chicago Clarinet Classics.
