Amanda Moskowitz - French Horn

Amanda Moskowitz leads a multifaceted career in music as a horn player, artist and educator.

Amanda began studying the horn at the age of 9. Having grown up in Long Island, New York, she was exposed to the rich culture Manhattan had to offer. In 8th grade her talent led her to Juilliard Pre-college where she began intensive study. After 3 rigorous years of classical training at Juilliard, Amanda transferred to Manhattan School of Music Pre-college to work with Erik Ralske, current principal horn of the Metropolitan Opera.

In 2001, Amanda moved to Cleveland, Ohio to obtain her Bachelors of Music in horn performance at the renowned Cleveland Institute of Music (C.I.M.). Her primary horn teachers at C.I.M. were Rick Solis, Eli Epstein and Rich King of the Cleveland Orchestra. While pursuing her degree in horn, she freelanced in regional orchestras in Ohio and Pennsylvania as well as taught horn students ages ranging from 9-18. Amanda has performed with the Canton, Akron, Mansfield, Youngstown, Warren and Erie Symphony Orchestras. In 2006, Amanda graduated with a Bachelor of Music in horn performance from C.I.M. and a degree in psychology, with honors, from Case Western Reserve University.

Other major teachers who have influenced Amanda’s playing are Greg Miller, Hector Rodriguez, David Jolley, Stuart Rose, Peter Schoettler, Michael Herzlin, Carolyn Wahl, Adam Unsworth, Lucinda Lewis, Karen Schneider, Ann Ellsworth and Dan Grabois. Amanda had the honor of participating in many masterclasses with Julie Landsman, Jen Montone, Jerome Ashby, Gail Williams and Nobuaki Fukukawa.

Presently, Amanda is freelancing throughout south and central Florida. This past year Amanda completed a full season with the Miami Symphony playing 4th and then 2nd horn. Amanda also joined the Miami Lyric Opera as principal horn during their productions of Donizetti’s L’Elisir D’Amore as well as played Assistant Principal horn with the Miami Wind Symphony. Amanda has also been hired by professional contractors to play in many diverse performances including: brass chamber music with the Patriot Brass Ensemble, 3rd horn with Craig Turley’s production of the Zelda Symphony of the Goddesses held at the Adrienne Arsht Performing Arts Center as well as featured solo and chamber performances throughout West Palm Beach. Amanda has also performed with many local community groups including: Sunrise Pops, Broward Symphony Orchestra, Alhambra Symphony Orchestra, Symphonic Band of the Palm Beaches, Boca Intergenerational Orchestra, and Royal Palm Beach Community Band. Additionally, Amanda performs with the Nova Southeastern University and Palm Beach Atlantic University orchestras for commencement and faculty and student performances.

Amanda spent this past summer immersing herself in training at Kendall Bett’s Horn Camp, the International Horn Society’s annual conference in Ithaca, New York, the Miami Music Festival and also Fearless Performance training in Bloomington, Indiana.

Amanda is also an avid chamber musician and performs regularly in several groups including: Horn & Harp Duo, woodwind quintet, woodwind dectet and brass quintet.

Amanda is very passionate about sharing her love of horn and music education. Amanda is co-founder of the Florida Horn Studio (http://floridahornstudio.weebly.com) and is eager to build not only a horn studio, but more importantly a horn community. Amanda is also an active member of International Horn Society and participates in annual and regional conferences. Amanda encourages her students to be active and take advantage of as many musical opportunities as possible.
