Lessons

Individual applied instruction focuses on the development of musicianship, daily fundamentals, and technique as a means of achieving musical expression in performance. Emphasis on time-management, practice techniques and problem solving skills will be addressed through each era of horn literature. Students are encouraged to focus on critical analysis of their progress and directed toward formulating original exercises in their further development toward autonomy. Through active participation, and personal motivation, students achieve musical growth in both performance and pedagodgy.

Horn Choir / Community Horn Club

UA Horn Choir students perform diverse styles of horn ensemble repertoire to further their musicianship and technical skills in an ensemble setting. With emphasis on blending of sound, intonation tendancies, and musical style, students learn to identify the individual roles of each chair and formulate the ideal horn section sound.

The Akron Horn Club is a community of horn players of all ages and skill levels in the NE Ohio Region. We perform 2-3 concerts per year including an annual Horn Day event, Holiday Carols and a Side-by-Side Spring Showcase. Sign up to join the mailing list for upcoming events.
