Radegundis Feitosa was the Founding President of the Brazilian Horn Association (2013-2015), served on the IHS Advisory Council (2017-2024), and led the IHS as President (2021-2024). Under his leadership, the IHS successfully navigated a return to in-person symposiums following the Covid-19 pandemic.
A pioneering musician in Brazil, Feitosa recorded the first compact disc featuring a Brazilian brass player playing standard European classical repertoire (Universal), as well as the first album featuring improvisations on the horn by a Brazilian player (Radegundis Tavares). He hosted the first two Brazilian Horn Meetings and the first International Horn Symposium in Latin America, IHS49, held in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte in 2017. In the same year, he was elected to the Advisory Council of the International Horn Society, the second South American to hold that position.
Since April 2008, he has been professor of horn at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte – UFRN, where, in addition to teaching and performing regularly, he has coordinated projects, groups, and outreach events.
Radegundis was awarded the Service Medal of Honor in 2025
