About Alec
Alec Chinnery is a French Horn player and teacher originally from the Seattle area and currently living in Los Angeles. Alec holds a Bachelors in French Horn Performance from Central Washington University where he studied with Dr. Jeffrey Snedeker. Currently he is studying with Dylan Hart at California State University, Northridge for his master’s degree. Alec has played with a variety of groups both professionally, for fun, and while in school. Examples include Westside Chamber Orchestra, Saratoga Orchestra, Wenatchee Symphony, Seattle Collaborative Orchestra, Edmonds High School Theatre department, and with the Central Washington University ensembles. Especially notably, he had the privilege of playing in their Wind Ensemble for the 2024 WASBE conference in Gwangju, South Korea. Alec has also performed with the CWU Horn Ensemble in the Northwest Horn Symposium since 2022, as well as at the 2024 International Horn Symposium in Fort Collins, Colorado. He is an active private lesson instructor, teaching students of all ages and abilities either in person or online. He places an emphasis on giving students the tools necessary to help continue their progress without the help from a teacher - all while providing a safe and fun environment where students can be their true-selves and learn to love making and sharing music. When not holding a horn, Alec likes going sailing, riding his motorcycle and spending time with his very patient fiancé and small dachshund.

I highly recommend Alec as a French horn teacher. He has an electric and bubbly personality that will keep you engaged the whole lesson, and the knowledge he offers from his exceptional French horn skills will, without a doubt, be an invaluable tool to your own playing.
I have known Alec as a musician for many years. We have played in various ensembles such as the wind band, orchestra, musicals, quintet, etc. His musical excellence is second to none, and his ability to learn and grow is truly inspiring.
Alec has students from all different levels and has managed to not only create fantastic players but also successfully instill the love of learning and music in his students. I highly recommend Alec as your private music teacher.I’ve worked with and learned from Alec, and no matter what it was an enjoyable, funny experience. Whenever he has advice or an idea for something, he gives digestible information that you can implement right away. He is a greatly educated horn player and performer, and being able to take lessons is a great opportunity to learn all the knowledge he has to teach.
