Hot Horns

Hot Horns is a vibrant, award winning, internationally acclaimed and entertaining musical ensemble that regularly travels the United States presenting interactive, educational concerts and master-classes at primary and secondary schools, and universities. Hot Horns is the premiere educational ensemble of its kind. Unique to Hot Horns is its all-inclusive instrumentation and its burnin’ arrangements. Hot Horns incorporates its trademark combinations of various brass, woodwind, and percussion instruments, all performed by six friendly, enthusiastic musicians with backgrounds in education. The group performs various genres of music from classical to jazz, rock to pop and more, thanks to the talents of various arrangers.

The ensemble was originally founded in 1995. Since that time, the group has toured Korea (1999), received first prize at the New York Brass Conference – Brass Quintet Competition (2003), and has worked with Young Audiences in most of the lower 48 states to bring educational concerts to diverse audiences of children at hundreds of schools throughout the country.

BRASS CAN DO ANYTHING

Program description

Beginning with a blast from a prehistoric cow horn, Hot Horns engages students in an action packed program, musically portraying the history of the brass family from “past to present.” Along the way, students experience the various periods of music with cross-curricular connections made to world history, physics, and math. Students will learn about each brass instrument, the differences and similarities between brass and woodwind instruments, and the science behind sound. The Brass Can Do Anything show incorporates a few student volunteers, as well as entire audience interaction.
