Critics have hailed Clifford Leaman as "an artist of the first order (...) intuitive, exciting, and enthralling" (Paul Wagner, The Saxophone Journal). "Leaman reveals himself to be {an} artist of technical brilliance and emotional commitment. (...) The range of colors is impressive..." (Jack Sullivan, American Record Guide). Associate Dean, Director of Undergraduate Studies and Professor of Saxophone at the University of South Carolina, Leaman is in great demand as a soloist and clinician and has performed and taught throughout the United States, Canada, Italy, Spain, France, Slovenia, Sweden, Thailand, Taiwan and in China. Leaman has recorded four compact discs with piano, and two additional discs with percussionist Scott Herring as the RoseWind Duo. In addition to his work with piano and marimba, Leaman has performed as a concerto soloist with numerous Wind Ensembles and Orchestras and has recorded concerti by Brant, Bassett and Dahl. He has given masterclasses at major schools of music and conservatories across the globe. Leaman is an avid supporter of contemporary music and he has commissioned and given the world premiere performances of over 30 works, including concerti by William Bolcom, Leslie Bassett, Frank Ticheli and Michael Colgrass.
