MET Opera Horns

What a wonderful season it was! A total of 493 hours of opera were performed at the opera house! A heartfelt thank you to every single of you who came and supported us!

We wanted to thank our friend Stewart Rose for his stellar playing on both assistant and fourth horn for the past two years!

Our very own Anne Scharer is moving back to Fourth Horn after playing Acting Second for some years now. We’re extremely lucky to have her in our section indeed!

We also welcomed Roy Femenella as one of the official Second Horns of our section! It’s also a pleasure to have him here with us!

Now, onto two concerts at Carnegie Hall and then our awaited European Tour in Paris, London and Baden-Baden with our music director Yannick Nezet-Seguin!

Come say hi if you’re attending!
