Abstract (type = abstract)
Research in expert performance has investigated the acquisition of expertise in various domains, the characteristics, skills, and knowledge of experts that distinguish them from novices, and the highly replicable skills of exceptional performers. Current research continues these lines of inquiry in a wider variety of domains. Researchers are also investigating the generalizable traits of experts across domains to determine if there are common mechanisms that mediate the phenomenon of expertise, and they are exploring how experts organize and utilize their skills and knowledge. Research in musical expertise indicates that practice is essential in the achievement of expertise, but relatively few studies have investigated the practice procedures of expert musicians. Using semi-structured interviews, this descriptive case study examined the practices, procedures, techniques, and habits of eight expert professional French horn players from six major American symphony orchestras, three in the Northeast and three in the Midwest. Results indicate that the maintenance and advancement of expertise for these eight horn players is highly intentional, and is actively pursued each day. The findings also confirm the recommendations of leading horn pedagogues for the practicing of specific areas of horn technique.
