Kids Commute - Hunting Horn Week!

It's Hunting Horn Week!
The Crosby Brown Collection of Musical Instruments, 1889 - Metropolitan Museum of Art
It's Hunting Horn Week!

Deer hunting season kicks off in Michigan this week - we're hearing hunting horns in classical music!

Hunting Season has begun in Michigan!

Many of our Kids Commute families will be out in search of a buck for the next little while, so it's Hunting Horn Week!

Hunting has been a popular sport for centuries, and the horn is featured in many hunting-related compositions.

This week we'll learn about hunting horn calls, and then hear them put to action in music!

We'll have a horn-related Quizlet for you, too!

Tune in Monday through Friday at 7:40 a.m. and 3:20 pm. or listen any time at the links below.
