March 25- Step-Up Horn Day by Sweetwater

On March 25, 2025, a representative from Sweetwater Audio's band and orchestra division will be in morning classes to discuss step-up horn options with students. There will be a variety of intermediate level mouthpieces, head joints, and instruments available for students to test and try out.

If you are not familiar, intermediate level horns (or step-up horns) are a great way for your high school musician to mature their sound. While the horn you started renting in 5th or 6th grade may still work fine for your musician, as they take on more difficult and demanding music in high school and beyond, a higher quality of resources may be the next step for them!

There is absolutely no obligation to purchase or rent, but students will likely bring home information on the instruments they try out and I encourage everyone to speak with Sweetwater (or other local music store options) about what options are available and might fit your student.
