About the Author

Lynn K. Asper is a native of South Bend, Indiana, holding a Bachelor of Science in Music Education from Ball State University and a Master of Music Education from Michigan State University. With a father, Franklin Asper, who played trumpet under the baton of John Philip Sousa and a trumpet-playing older brother, Norman Asper (whom Lynn still considers to be his first teacher), it was just destiny that Lynn would become a trumpet player and teacher.

Robert Ralston, Lynn's beginning band teacher in South Bend, was also his first official trumpet teacher. By the ninth grade, Lynn was studying with Jay Miller (ret.), a graduate of Indiana University. During his undergraduate years at Ball State University he studied with Max Woodbury, who was at that time a member of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, and Boyd Hood, who was the trumpet instructor at Ball State University. Lynn considers Boyd Hood to have had the greatest impact upon his trumpet playing. Mr. Hood had studied with Adolf "Bud" Herseth, principal trumpet with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. In graduate school at Michigan State University, Lynn studied with Byron Autry (ret.).

Lynn K. Asper spent ten years teaching high school music at Ottawa Hills High School in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He was asked to join the music faculty at Grand Rapids Community College in 1979 and has remained there in the capacity of Music Department Head, conductor of the Kent Philharmonia Orchestra, Director of Instrumental Music, professor of trumpet, and conductor of numerous college ensembles, including the GRCC Wind Ensemble, Raider Marching Band, and the Community College Orchestra.
