Genghis Barbie, the leading post post-feminist all-female horn experience, is the most innovative and energizing chamber ensemble of its generation. With a combined 24 years of conservatory training, Genghis Barbie delivers a visceral and unadulterated musical adventure. Performing arrangements of pop music from all eras, contemporary commissions, and classical works, they are the most versatile and expansive group on NYCs classical/pop/rock/jazz/electro-acoustic scene.

The ensemble was incepted in a unique moment of ingenuity when Freedom Barbie, Alpine Barbie, Velvet Barbie, and Attila the Horn converged and vowed to create distinctive, interactive and personal performances. Balancing individual careers in symphony orchestras in addition to their busy New York City performing schedule, the ladies of Genghis Barbie have performed at multiple International Horn Society Symposiums, premiered a solo commission at Carnegie Hall, and appeared on America’s Got Talent. Recently, their recording of “Take on Me” was featured in an episode of the HBO show The Leftovers. As educators, they have toured numerous universities presenting workshops, masterclasses, and lectures on musical entrepreneurship.
