John Henle<\/p>\n
(1926-2020)<\/p>\n
Inducted 2007<\/p>\n
John Henle\u2019s biggest contribution to the Minnesota music scene was his 33-year career as a music educator. John\u2019s music education began as a fourth grader in New Ulm when he started trumpet lessons. In 6th grade he was placed in the high school band and had a solo at The DeSmet Conference Music Festival. In eighth grade he placed first in the WCCO radio Stairway to Stardom<\/em> competition. While teaching music, Henle\u2019s bands received 4-star ratings every year for more than three decades. John led the New Prague High School Band to the International Music Festival in 1988 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and won First Place honors. Former student musicians, now adults, fondly recall their instructor\u2019s motivational and technical skills, along with his exacting \u201cperfectionist\u201d demeanor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" John Henle (1926-2020) Inducted 2007 John Henle\u2019s biggest contribution to the Minnesota music scene was his 33-year career as a music educator.
