Join us “Down Under” for the 42nd International Horn Symposium.

Come to Queensland at the most beautiful time of the year for a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit Australia and hear some of the world’s greatest horn players.
Join founding president of the IHS Barry Tuckwell in the subtropical surroundings of Brisbane’s South Bank, where you will meet with colleagues from all over the world to celebrate our common love of all things horn!
While you’re here, take advantage of our many attractions, including whale watching in Moreton Bay or visiting Steve Irwin’s Australia Zoo, both of which are within easy travel of Brisbane city.

One thing is certain … if you come to the 42nd International Horn Symposium, you WILL have a great time!

I look forward to seeing you all in Australia very soon!
