Both would be put on hold however, when Andrew started to take Tally Hall more seriously in the fall of 2005.<ref>[https://www.pingry.org/uploaded/2016_Our_Community/Students/Publications/Pingry_Record/record-march102006.pdf The Pingry Record.

Biography

Pre-Tally Hall

Andrew Horowitz began piano studies at the age of five, and was composing pieces when he was eight, partly due to Andrew being "bored with other people's music". At age 12 he began taking music lessons to better his musical skills.[1] In high school, he pursued private composition and piano studies with faculty at the Juilliard School. He also played in the New York Youth Symphony, led an active jazz quartet, musical directed for several musical theatre productions, and worked as a freelance pianist.[2]

Andrew attended The Pingry School in Martinsville, NJ. (Now, "Basking Ridge".) The Pingry EP was named after the Pingry school, since the band would go play concerts there from time to time in their earlier years. After attending The Pingry School, Andrew would graduate in 2001 and started attending the University of Michigan.

Tally Hall

In December 2002, friend Rob Cantor would ask Andrew to play a gig with Rob and Zubin Sedghi. This gig would be the first gig performed by Tally Hall. The first song he wrote for Tally Hall was Good Day and in 2004, Andrew won the BMI John Lennon Songwriting Scholarship award for $10,000 because of the song.[3]

He has studied composition privately with Susan Botti, Michael Daugherty, Curtis Curtis-Smith, and Evan Chambers. In the summer of 2004 (or 2003?) he studied with Dr. Philip Lasser and Michel Merlot at La Schola Cantorum in Paris.

After forming Tally Hall, Andrew created a band focused around using toy instruments, the Toy Orchestra. The band was primarily composed of friends from the University of Michigan, with a mix of original songs and cover songs. Andrew also created a project with his brother Steven called The Baker Bros., which was a mashup remix project of Jay-Z songs and classical music. Both would be put on hold however, when Andrew started to take Tally Hall more seriously in the fall of 2005.[4]

In 2005 Andrew graduated from the University of Michigan with a double degree in Music Composition and English Language and Literature.[2]
