Welcome!
I'm so glad you're here! My name is Haley Houk, I'm a bassoonist, educator, and creator based in Houston, Texas. My goal is simple-
INSPIRE EMPOWER CREATE
inspire
Bringing joy to each rehearsal and experience, I am freelance musician based in Houston, TX. I love traveling all over to perform with chamber groups and ensembles on bassoon and contrabassoon- you can find some fun videos on my media page!
empower
I am dedicated to providing my students the best information, tools, and confidence-building skills. My students are competitive in region and state-wide competitions. If my students have a goal, I'll get them there! Texas is a BIG place, so I also love any chance I get to work with JH/HS bassoonists through masterclasses.
create
Musically, I love being a part of new pieces- I have had the great joy of collaborating on new works for solo bassoon, bassoon quartet, reed quintet, chamber orchestra, and wind ensemble!
Crafting-wise, I offer unique reed drying racks, bassoon art, and double reed crafts. Select from readily available products or submit a custom order on my Products/Etsy tab- I want your order to be as unique as you!
