Training
After early lessons with Dorothy Schneider, a pupil of Tobias Matthay, Haydn went on to study for several years with Isabel Beyer, half of the renowned Beyer-Dagul Piano Duo. Subsequently, he took lessons with the distinguished Royal Academy of Music Professor, Guy Jonson. During the 1990s, Haydn studied intensively in London with the renowned pianist, composer, and pedagogue Peter Feuchtwanger, who became his principal influence and mentor and in whose legendary International Masterclasses he assisted.

“When a man goes through six years’ training to be a doctor he will never be the same. He knows too much.”
