From Marvin Blickenstaff
"Almost daily I have a growing appreciation for what Lynn represented as an educational composer and a very sensitive musician. I feel like my life has been very blessed by having known Lynn and Louise (Bianchi, pictured above) and having worked with them. Great, great minds. I really cannot teach a first-year curriculum without teaching quite a bit of Lynn Freeman Olson. He wrote the best pieces for first-year students that I know."
Quote from Marvin inside his online course The Marvelous Marvin Bundle.
The Magic of Lynn Freeman Olson
I first met Lynn at the MTNA conference in 1985. I was newly published and was showing a colleague my pieces. Unknown to me, Lynn was listening and told me that he loved the "fresh" sound of my music. That summer, friends who had attended a " piano teacher cruise" to Hawaii led by Lynn excitedly called me to say that Lynn had told them I was the "composer of the future." I relay this because Lynn's words and actions tell you so much about his unparalleled kindness and generosity. His love and passion for teaching, writing pedagogical works and giving teachers incredibly useful teaching insights were a gift to us all.
