Audrey currently plays concerts and parties on a solo basis, but she is also happy to gather her colleagues to create horn quartets and brass quintets. She is happy to play church services, outdoor events, solo performances with orchestras, and even children's events. She also arranges music and is happy to customize your event on a more personal basis by performing any music you can think to request. Audrey also enjoys teaching students of any age and level, and can teach in her own home or will travel to the homes of her students.
