About HSOC

History

The Horn Society of the Carolinas was formed in February 2009 about a month after a gathering of Charlotte NC area horn players performed for a “Brass Fest” concert with the David Silden Brass Ensemble, organized by a local teacher and tuba/euphonium player David Silden. Although many of the horn players had played together for the first time, it was suggested that we form a casual group of area horn players with the purpose of reading and enjoying works for horn choir. This quickly evolved into finding a semi-permanent place to gather and rehearse with the first meeting attracting 20+ horn players!
