Ana Stankovi\u0107 is an internationally sought-after artist of the alpine horn and French horn, currently residing in Germany, in the Black Forest region, in the state of Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg. In her hometown of Belgrade, after graduating from the Mokranjac Music High School, she completed horn studies at the University of Arts \/ Faculty of Music in Belgrade, Serbia, in the class of Prof. Milan Radi\u0107<\/strong>. Simultaneously, she completed both undergraduate and postgraduate horn studies as a DAAD scholarship recipient at the Bodensee University \/ State University of Music in Trossingen, Germany, studying with Prof. Francis Orval<\/strong> and Prof. Michael H\u00f6ltzl, the founder or “father” of the German horn school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She is the winner of numerous national and international competitions, and was also a scholarship holder at the prestigious international arts school Interlochen in the USA. She has honed her skills in many international youth orchestras and masterclasses with prominent musicians such as Hermann Baumann<\/strong>, Froydis Ree Wekre<\/strong>, Thomas M\u00fcller<\/strong>, Herman Jeurissen<\/strong>, Christian Lampert<\/strong>, Norbert Sterz<\/strong>, Wolfgang Gaag<\/strong>, Randall Faust<\/strong>, Lowell Shaw<\/strong>, and Ferenc Tarjani<\/strong>, who enriched her musical education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In early 2020, Ana Stankovi\u0107 introduced the, until then, unknown alpine horn for the first time ever in Northern Ireland, in Belfast, at Queen\u2019s University, where she was a guest lecturer and soloist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021 and 2022, she was a double recipient of the prestigious award presented by the Ministry of Culture of Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg for her work.

This versatile artist possesses an extensive repertoire of traditional and contemporary styles for the alpine horn. She presents the alpine horn in a wide range of genres through an unexpectedly soft and delicate yet incredibly powerful and strong sound, and is dedicated to the development of new functional possibilities for the instrument. She enjoys playing with and experimenting with acoustics in any given space.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
