I played for Manny when he was director of the Calhoun-Isles Community Band. He is a wonderful teacher and conductor and is my musical hero.

What a remarkable man…realizing his god given potential in so many ways. And man what a sound!❤

A few weeks back I heard a recording of the MSO on the radio performing Pictures at an Exhibition. Eiji Oue conducting. Conductor, trumpet and orchestra performed at the highest level. What a sound.

We love Manny at the BSO!! So grateful for him. What a treasure he is!

Thoroughly enjoyable piece! I have had the privilege of performing with the Bloomington Symphony Orchestra under Manny's direction for the last 10 years. He always pushes us to play at our highest level. And yes, he loves to share stories!

Wowed again. The discussion about martial arts and music has opened my eyes musically for the first time in my life.

Great video on an incredible person, musician, teacher and leader. Keep on kicking, Manny!

Very inspiring, Maestro Laureano. I returned to the trumpet after a career in medicine and education. I love the challenge of exercise until I get it right! Gracias, Mil!!

Manny, you have a fantastic story! What a blessing MN is to have you. I hope we hear more stories like this from the Orchestra.

Manny Laureano is an exemplary musician as well as a thoughtful and wonderful human being. He is a true inspiration for excellence whether he has a trumpet in his hands or not. This is a great man and so happy to see this video that the Minnesota Orchestra produced. Well done all! Mark Inouye San Francisco Symphony
