Welcome to the 23rd Nordic Horn Seminar in Oslo, Norway on the 2nd to 5th of july. We invite horn players of all ages and levels to a weekend filled with music making, inspiration, networking and new knowledge.
This year’s event is all about doing, so the sessions are designed for you to participate rather than passive listening.
There will be panel debates, technique clinics and of course fantastic concerts where everyone will get the chance to both play and listen.
The first day of the seminar is dedicated to children, who will get the chance to participate in a fantastic workshop led by Cecilie Therese Nereng and kick off the seminar for everyone else with a concert on the afternoon of the 2. july.
The practical stuff:
We do not organize accommodation for participants.

What can you expect at the seminar?
Concerts
Throughout the seminar there will be a series of concerts – from an opening concert showcasing our different contributors to late night live electronics. Our main artists Radovan Vlatkovic and Paula Ernesaks will participate in multiple concerts with both standard as well as less known repertoire and premieres of brand new pieces. You will get the chance to hear performances by our nordic artists, and it will be a great occasion to discover new music for the horn. There will of course also be horn ensemble in all sizes.
Master classes & work shops
Artistry, improvisation, practicing better, how to use the body correctly are some of the diverse areas of expertise the artists and contributors will cover during the seminar. The different master classes, works shops and clinics will be adapted to suit participants of different skill levels.
Social
The Nordic Horn Seminar is about making new acquantences, inspiring each other and the social aspect is as important as playing. Quiz, sauna, speed dating and sight reading-nachspiel – the days will be tightly packed with activities to join.
Horn makers exhibitions
Looking for a new horn? Or curious about other models? At the seminar we will have several well-known brands. Alexander, Paxman and BRIZ horns will be coming and bringing models for sale. In Sentralens’s nice premises you will have a good opportunity to test horns over several days, and you don’t have to travel to other cities and countries in Europe.
In addition to the established exhibitors, we will open up for buying and selling of horns and equipment from private individuals. Here you will have the opportunity to buy used horns, mouthpieces, sheet music and other equipment. A good chance to make a bargain! Do you have something you would like to sell? We will provide updates here and on social media with more info as the seminar gets closer.
