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:
“There is all the difference in the world between departure from recognised rules by one who has learned to obey them, and neglect of them through want of training or want of skill or want of understanding. Before you can be eccentric you must know where the circle is.”
—Ellen Terry (1847–1928)
“Unfortunately, life may sometimes seem unfair to middle children, some of whom feel like an afterthought to a brilliant older sibling and unable to captivate the family’s attention like the darling baby. Yet the middle position offers great training for the real world of lowered expectations, negotiation, and compromise. Middle children who often must break the mold set by an older sibling may thereby learn to challenge family values and seek their own identity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
“The Führer is always quite cheerful, cheerful with all his heart, when he is having tea with his friends during the night, or when he is training his dogs!”
—Martin Bormann (1900–1945)
