MAXWELL S. ARCENEAUX (BIO) @MAXWELL_ARCENEAUX - INSTAGRAM HANDLE / TAG
Maxwell S. Arceneaux is a classically trained French horn player, composer and arranger with a passion for both orchestral and solo performance. With a foundation in classical music, he has performed with esteemed orchestras, including the Black Pearl Chamber Orchestra, the Colour of Music Festival Orchestra, and the NEWorks Orchestra at the Kennedy Center. His orchestral work spans symphonic and opera repertoire, showcasing his depth and versatility as a musician.
In addition to his classical roots, Maxwell is a dynamic soloist, seamlessly blending classical and contemporary styles. As a featured resident artist at the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, he presents engaging solo performances, offering audiences a mix of classical, pop, and original compositions. His solo career has taken him to stages such as the Cayman Islands Arts Music Festival and the prestigious MD Chapter of The Links, Inc. Peabody Concert Series, where he premiered both his own compositions and celebrated classical works.
Beyond performance, Maxwell is an accomplished composer and arranger with strong transposition skills, allowing him to adapt music for various ensembles and settings. His artistic voice is further captured in his three studio albums—Believe (2022), Identity (2021), and Discovery (2020)—which showcase his range as both a performer and a composer.
Maxwell holds a Master of Music in Classical Horn Performance from Shenandoah University and a Bachelor of Arts in Music from the Peabody Institute at Johns Hopkins University. His musical journey began at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA 2018 alum), where he developed the foundation for his artistry.
Whether performing in a grand concert hall, composing for a special event, or bringing music to an intimate gathering, Maxwell’s dedication to his craft is evident in every note he plays.
