traveled to Kingsville, Texas to perform at the 54th International Horn Symposium, held on the campus of Texas A&M University Kingsville,
August 1-6, 2022.听
Students Jeremi Jenkins, Daniel Kennedy, Jackson Lair, Kaden McDermott, Christopher
Perdue, and Katherine Phillips attended with Professor of Music, James Boldin, DMA.
The students, all members of the Sound of Today Marching Band, the 51萝莉 Horn Ensemble,
and several other on-campus musical groups, were invited to perform at the symposium
on a concert with other ensembles from Florida State University and Illinois State
University.听
Boldin says, 鈥淭he International Horn Symposium is the annual meeting of the International
Horn Society, and brings together hundreds of students, professional musicians, university
faculty, and other educators for a week of performances, master classes, and presentations
dedicated to the French horn. This year鈥檚 symposium was the first to be held in-person
since 2019 and was the first international symposium these students have attended.
