YPAW 6: Alexander Oon

As though life as a musician isn't tough enough, you have to operate your instrument with your non-dominant hand and use the other hand to complete the instrument. No wonder the the French Horn is dubbed as the most difficult brass instrument but apparently according to Alexander(Alex), none of the above reasons are the real culprit behind this unforgiving instrument. Alex is someone that is deeply passionate about music and has been this way ever since he picked up the horn at a tender age. His achievements includes being selected for the Pacific Music Festival and Lucerne Festival Academy. He currently holds the position of Principal Horn at The Sun Symphony Orchestra in Hanoi, Vietnam and has made performed with the Philharmonia Orchestra and the Singapore Symphony Orchestra, to name a few!

Apart from being an experienced orchestra musician, Alex is equally comfortable with contemporary music performance as well as his multi track horn arrangement videos and the occasional video filled with satirical humour with witty music accompaniment. You can check out all these fantastic content at his Facebook and Instagram. Alex is also a founding member of the newly revived TEH Trio, do head over to their page and show them your support!
