Kazimierz machala biography of barack

Just about everyone calls him Kaz. He has both a name and a life story that is different from everyone else, and one that is replete with both traditional horn playing as well as creative music. He came from a rural background in post-war Communist Poland but went to be a professional horn player, competition winner (third place, 1974 Prague Competition), the first DMA horn graduate from Juilliard, chamber musician, soloist, recording artist, and a university horn professor (University of Georgia, 1986-89, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 1989-2009). As if that weren't enough, he also (finally) became a published and performed composer and arranger.
