Horn Studio
Welcome to the KU Horn Studio, where Toto is nowhere in sight, the University is perched atop high, majestic tree-covered hills, and (modest) skiing is but an hour away!
Here at the KU Horn Studio, which has currently around twenty students, we have a supportive yet challenging environment for horn players. The studio is dedicated not only to mastering the technical side of the instrument, but in finding and communicating your unique solo voice. If you are looking to win an orchestral or military band position, get into that elite graduate school or simply want to play and teach the horn better, this is the place for you!
Feel free to peruse the site, and if you have any questions or would like more information, don't hesitate to contact kellymisko@ku.edu. I would be delighted to respond!
Sincerely,
Dr. Kelly Misko
Lecturer of Horn
