Members, as you may be aware, the IHS Premier Soloist Competition is our primary award for promising young hornists, offering our soloists-of-the-future the chance to showcase their talents at the annual Symposium.
As part of our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, we are currently consulting our members on how best to structure the repertoire requirements for future editions of the competition. We are particularly interested in creating requirements which challenge applicants both technically and musically while updating our repertoire to include works that go beyond the standard audition canon.
To that end, we want to hear from you! To submit suggestions, click here, log in with your member name and password, then scroll down to access the form. Please complete it by Wednesday, June 5, 2024. If you are not an IHS member already, please consider joining today in order to submit your suggestions and so that you may continue to participate in meaningful ways in the development of the IHS.
Our Competitions and Scholarships reformulation committee will review all suggestions in the selection process for new repertoire for the competition moving forward.
