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.

Famous quotes containing the word training:
“The area [of toilet training] is one where a child really does possess the power to defy. Strong pressure leads to a powerful struggle. The issue then is not toilet training but who holds the reins—mother or child? And the child has most of the ammunition!”
—Dorothy Corkville Briggs (20th century)
“When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra.”
—Bill Cosby (20th century)
“I am not a suffragist, nor do I believe in “careers” for women, especially a “career” in factory and mill where most working women have their “careers.” A great responsibility rests upon woman—the training of children. This is her most beautiful task.”
—Mother Jones (1830–1930)
