Dave and Lori Folz From: Dallas	Heard you last night at the Dallas Symphony pops series. You were spectacular. Will you be performing in Texas this year as a soloist or with a small group? Added: February 9, 2009

Bob Hunt From: Memphis TN	Hi Ryan, I doubt if you'll ever see this but what the heck, I'll give it a go. I saw you at Lindenwood Church last night. It was the first time I had ever attended the Christmas music there, I had heard what a wonderful show it is. I knew there was going to be a trumpet player there, but to be honest, I knew nothing about you. Well, I do now... Man, what a performance, that rendition of Silent Night you did absolutely brought tears to my eyes. I have never encountered a brass player with your abilities in a live performance. That was such a treat experiencing your music as well as the rest of the performers. I wanted to just shake your hand after it was over with and thank you for the greatest Christmas present I have ever gotten. Music is a great influence in my life, I pitty people who don't have the ability (or) gift to have music touch their souls. Thank-you for a great performance that I shall hold dear to my heart for many years to come. Sincerely, Bob Hunt Added: December 8, 2008

Mark Fenne From: Chicago	Ryan, I recently attended the Brass Band of Battle Creek Concert down at Millenium Park in Chicago last month and just wanted to let you know how incredible you sounded on soprano. You make it look so effortless yet sound so pure, precise, and full. Hearing you play both the last movement of Pictures as well as the last movement of Tchaik 4 was truly inspirational and motivational. Just like all the other horns you play, it really shows your versatility and talent as a performer. I have recently started playing soprano myself here in Chicago in a brass band. I have some serious practicing to do! Best of luck in Dallas and I hope to hear you again up in Chicago. Added: September 5, 2008

kris krueger From: green bay, wisconsin	We've just finished listening to your CD again. Whenever I listen to it I'm reminded of that very cold Jan. Sun. in Green Bay. It was the day that the Packers lost to the Giants in the NFC championship game, probably Brett Favre's last game ever, and a very difficult loss for Packer fans. We attended both the concert and the game. As we were leaving the game I menioned to my husband that I didn't feel really sad about the loss because that beautiful music was still in my head. For the cost of the game, even to season ticket holders, the concert was so very much more enjoyable, and made the loss to the Giants seem insignificant when we thought about the beautiful music you shared with us. In fact, we enjoyed one of your CD's on our way home from the game. Please return to Green Bay often! KK P. S. I don't even like organ music--my husband does! Added: June 26, 2008

Joe From: Dallas, TX	If I could spell correctly I'd be a happy man! I meant "principal" trumpet, not "principle" trumpet. Added: May 6, 2008

Karen Mesikapp From: Ignacio, CO	Hi, Ryan...You are so absoultely fabulous I cannot think of words to describe you !!! I play viola in the San Juan Symphony, and also do a lot of amateur trumpet playing in various locations in the 4 Corners area. The concerts of the Feb. 16-17 weekend were beyond belief. I especially enjoyed your picc playing, and can really appreciate it as I play it a little (a very dangerous thing)when the occasion arises. Everyone in the SJSO really enjoyed playing with you - you are a ton of fun !!!! Added: February 20, 2008

Jason Winkler From: Cleveland, OH.	Ryan, 15 years ago, in a quintet recital at a church across the street from Severance Hall, your picc trumpet was temporarily inoperable in the middle of the Lincoln Portrait. When most of us would panic, you seemed pleasantly disturbed to have to play high E's and F's on your Bb horn... One of many fond memories from our brief times together. Thank you for all of your instruction during my high school years. I'm so proud of you! You always were a fantastic musician, mentor and a man of integrity. God Bless You.
