". . . a treasure of insight into the mind and heart of one of our great 
American performers and teachers. If the Arban book is the trumpet 
player's 'Bible,' then I'd have to say Inside John Haynie's Studio is 
the trumpet teacher's 'Bible.'"—Ronald Romm, founder, Canadian 
Brass, and professor of trumpet, University of Illinois

"The essays in this remarkable volume go far beyond trumpet 
pedagogy. . . . John's concern for educating the whole person, not just 
cramming for the job market, emanates from every page. This book 
showcases a teaching career that has become legendary."—James 
Scott, dean of the College of Music, University of North Texas

"The principle that pervades my entire educational philosophy did 
not come from education or psychology classes; it did not come from 
the many sermons preached by my Dad and hundreds of other 
pulpiteers. It came from John Haynie's studio."—Douglas Smith, 
Mildred and Ernest Hogan Professor of Music, Southern Baptist 
Theological Seminary
