Excerpts

Excerpts are some of the most important music that any professional musician will prepare. Whether you want to become a band director, jazz musician, or a music historian, excerpts are crucial to your development as brass player (and as a musician!)

Below is a link to a page that the International Horn Society has created. It has had great success with french horn students in helping them prepare for that next audition. Be sure to click the link below to learn (and hear) some of the standard excerpts for the french horn.

I also want to include another horn excerpt resource that be will quite beneficial to all horn players. Ericka Tyner Grodrian from Valparaiso University has built and developed a website featuring horn excerpts from the opera repertoire. You can visit this invaluable website by clicking on the link below.
