In the United States of America
Compiled by Inman Hebert
This listing includes postings for 2024 relevant to the horn as of the middle of January 2024, whose deadlines will have yet to pass by the end of January; however, the postings will inevitably include omissions. While the International Horn Society is worldwide, the limitations of my experience have confined the scope of this listing to the United States. Inclusion does not constitute endorsement by the International Horn Society.

The listing is limited to those for 2024 posted by the middle of January, with a deadline that will have yet to pass by the end of January; however, exclusions will be inevitable. Orchestras sometimes have fellowships and other opportunities for college students; however, the majority of those deadlines have passed.

University, College, and Conservatory Music Camps for Middle and High School Students
These entries organized by state include summer camps, institutes, and clinics that include the horn and are held at universities, colleges, and conservatories and oriented for middle and high school students. The listing is limited to those for 2024 posted by the middle of January, with a deadline that will have yet to pass by the end of January; however, exclusions will be inevitable.
Please note that composition camps are not listed. In addition, orchestra camps and chamber music programs targeted for middle and high school students often include only strings and must be examined closely, so some postings may have been missed.
Some camps are open until filled to all who apply and only require registration and payment. Others will mandate an audition for acceptance. The term registration deadline has been used for consistency but sometimes means application deadline. Some offer early bird pricing. Most institutions will have the student perform for appropriate placement in ensembles.
These camps introduce students to an institution’s music program and provide opportunities to play in ensembles, receive instruction, take private lessons, and perform. Most offer overnight and commuter options. Inclusion does not constitute endorsement by the International Horn Society.
