[ Mat Croft ]

Welcome to the Mat Croft Horn Studio!

With over three decades of experience as both an active professional performer and a dedicated educator, I am passionate about helping horn players of all ages and skill levels find their unique voice and reach their highest musical potential.

My teaching approach blends rigorous technical foundations with a deeply supportive, encouraging environment tailored to each student's individual goals. Over the years, I have had the privilege of guiding students to the highest levels of competitive success, including placing students into the prestigious All-State ensembles in Utah, California, and Texas.

Educational Background

To my teaching, I bring a wealth of knowledge from some of the nation’s top collegiate music programs:

• Doctoral Studies (Horn Performance) – University of North Texas

• Master of Music – San Francisco Conservatory of Music

• Bachelor of Music – Brigham Young University

Whether you are a beginner taking your very first notes, a high schooler preparing for university auditions, or an advanced player looking to refine your orchestral excerpts, I am here to provide the insights, tools, and inspiration you need to succeed.
