On Jan. 12, French horn players from across Long Island came together to take part in the Suffolk County Music Educators’ Association’s 19th annual Day of Horn. Two horn players from Oldfield Middle School in the Harborfields Central School District – Claire Bernstein and Anna Hoppe – represented Harborfields with pride at this one-of-a-kind gathering.
In addition to a massed horn ensemble and an All-Star student group, guest artist Dr. James Hampson made a notable appearance, and both the Northport Horn Club and Suffolk Horn Club participated as well. Harborfields music faculty member Cathy Ferraro was on hand to work with the Oldfield students and take part in the festivities. An event that offers absolute immersion in this particular instrumental realm, it proved to be a horn happening to remember.
