Trevor Nuckols is an internationally recognised horn soloist whose career includes concerto, chamber, and orchestral appearances at leading halls and festivals in the worlds musical capitals. His repertoire ranges from early Baroque to newly commissioned works, unified by a consistent focus on structural integrity, tonal depth, and fidelity to the score.
He received his early musical training at the Interlochen Arts Academy before earning his Bachelor and Master of Music degrees from The Juilliard School, where he was a Kovner Fellow. He pursued postgraduate study at the Universität Mozarteum Salzburg. His principal teachers include Michael Corcoran, Gene Berger, R. J. Kelley, and Radovan Vlatković. He has held fellowships at the Marlboro Music Festival, Lucerne Festival Academy, Tanglewood Music Center, and Pacific Music Festival.
Mr. Nuckols is the recipient of the International Horn Societys Barry Tuckwell Award, conferred in recognition of distinguished solo achievement and contributions to the future of the instrument. He is the Gold Medalist of the Vienna International Music Competition and First Prize winner of the International Horn Societys Premiere Soloist Competition. Additional honours include top awards from the Juilliard Concerto Competition, the Music Academy of the West, and the North International Music Competition.
He has appeared as solo horn with the Münchener Kammerorchester and as an artist with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. He has served as guest principal horn with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, the Philharmonie Salzburg, and the Bad Reichenhall Philharmoniker. His playing is noted for its balance of precision and effortless mastery, and he has been praised by The New York Times as outstanding and an excellent soloist.
A committed advocate for new music, Mr. Nuckols collaborates closely with living composers and incorporates contemporary works into concert programmes alongside core repertoire. He is co-founder of Duo Corgano, a horn and organ ensemble with organist David Ball, whose performances span early repertoire to modern commissions, often presented in architecturally and acoustically significant spaces.
His scholarly work centres on the development of horn playing from the Baroque through the mid-twentieth century, with particular attention to the British, French, Austro-German, and Czech traditions. He maintains a growing private archive of historical horns, manuscripts, recordings, and iconography. He has presented lectures and master classes at Seoul National University, Tokyo College of Music, New York University, and the University of Cartagena.
He performs on a custom B-flat Alexander horn, Ricco Kühn double horn, and a 19th-century Raoux-Millereau piston horn. His work is grounded in the conviction that the horn, informed by history and shaped by intent and passion, remains one of musics most eloquent and enduring voices.
