Welcome
The UO Horn Studio is a diverse group of UO students who study and improve their skills on the horn through a variety of degree programs. Every student has a one-hour private weekly lesson and attends studio class during the week. Students can participate in large ensembles, chamber music ensembles, horn ensemble, and perform solo recitals in various venues and organizations throughout the University music community.
Most students in the horn studio are music majors (education or performance), but there are also non-majors that participate in the studio and the school of music.

- SPECIAL EVENT: Oct. 2, 9am-5 pm BODY MAPPING FOR MUSICIANS
Bodymapping for Musicians is a six-hour workshop on body structures,
movement and balance. The purpose of the workshop is to educate musicians
on efficient body movement related to instrument playing, singing or
conducting, in order to facilitate greater physical ease and to prevent
later, long-term injury issues.
Marieke Schuurs is a Certified Bodymapping specialist with Andover
Educators. She trained with the organization’s founder, Barbara Conable,
