CREATION OF IHAFA: International Horn Academy and Festival of Aragon started working last year. (Video AFITA)

¡The main goal of this project  is to develop a coordinate and stable pull of junior horn players from the Professional Conservatories of Aragon (Alcañiz, Huesca and Zaragoza) providing it with technical resources (updating of Aragonese teachers and students through the Professors of Berlin and Maastricht) and providing Aragonese students with contacts with well known french horn pedagogues in Germany and Holland if, in the future, they want to continue their Higher musical education.

IHAFA has come to be a unique meeting opportunity for amateur and professional horn players from all over Europe.

This project includes many activities divided in two main fields:

  • Academy: individual master classes, horn ensembles, Orchestral repertoire, teaching practice and leisure time activities (theatre, sport, etc.).
  • Festival: involving performances of all the students and/or teachers who participate in the project.

  • Recital for French horn and Piano by Marie Luise Neunecker and Silke Avenhaus.
