The University of Louisville Horn studio hosts a dynamic mix of majors of that are and continue to be active professional performers, composers, and educators in their fields. Students engage in weekly studio, performance, horn choir, and application-based classes such as horn pedagogy, literature, excerpt class, and practice techniques. Yearly, the horn studio hosts two studio recitals consisting

of solo works and horn choir and are frequent guests in the Beth Boehm Concert Series. Graduates have attended prestigious schools such as Eastman, Indiana University, and Rice University, become staple educators in their communities, secured full time residencies in the Creators Corps with the Louisville Orchestra, and have sat on board of the board of the organization. Passionate about equal education and opportunities, our horns engage with studio education majors who are guest conductors in the horn choir and premier works regularly. Students’ part assignments rotate frequently, navigating registers, styles, and music by composers from all walks of life.

Keegan Coomer, studying music performance (horn), is traveling this summer to Sewanee: University of the South for an Orchestral Music Festival. He’s excited for the “selected repertoire, connecting with more passionate musicians and faculty, and more experience with orchestral horn section playing.”
Our annual Halloween Spooktacular is a favorite memory of his at the School of Music.
He says he originally chose music “to inspire others and tell stories, but has since morphed into (mainly with composition) a way to express the emotions I have trouble putting into words. I also love the technical and cooperative elements of section and chamber playing; the rush of performance is like no other!”
