Back in July I got to visit the astounding collection of the Naples Archeology Museum. I don't normally include cornucopia (as would be over run) but rather liked this one -

Always a sucker for these postal symbol #HiddenHorns - this one was spotted when I was briefly in Ljubljana, Slovenia in the summer.

Spotted this #HiddenHorn whilst here in Sydney for the Australian Chamber Orchestra Mozart Last Symphonies tour. (Thanks to Louis-Pierre Bergeron who tipped me off about this one last time we were all here!)

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Not a horn! But curious as to what's going on here on the side of the Liszt Academy in Budapest!!

In a months time the Royal Conservatoire Scotland will be hosting its annual Scottish Horn Day.

Details from the stunning necklace that the extremely talented Gabriella Ibarra of Margarita Accesorios recently made for me!

A collection of nice photos from the recent Springhead Constellation tour of Brahms Schicksalslied and Mendelssohn Lobgesang. Fabulous working with such a great horn section! Thanks to Peter Moutousis, David Fliri and Jörg Schutless for their splendind playing (and great conversations!)

Great start to our new term at Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag. Delighted to reconnect with continuing students and welcome many new faces to our historic horn class here in Holland!

#HiddenHorn spotted at the customs section of Pisa airport on Monday night!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

Always a pleasure to have the excuse to play this lovely instrument. Very much enjoyed two of my favourite Bach Cantata (BWV 8 and 95) with Bach Winchester Voices (also known aptly as BWV!) yesterday

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Spotted by me on the front page of the London Metro newspaper - this #HiddenHornPlayer ("Herne the Hunter") is part of an advertising campaign by Great Western Railway!

A good #HiddenHorn spot by my friend and colleague Koen Plaetinck. I love how horns are often cleverly used in these ways!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Wonderful Jennifer Montone was in Stockholm recently playing with the Swedish Radio Symphony and whilst there came across what she (very accurately in my opinion!) described as "fun quasi-horn statues". Aren't they great!

020

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Isn't this striking and eye catching? This was a very generous gift from a talented young horn player - Kandil K. Mohamed - who I met recently. One of the details I love about this is the beautiful background which he explained was painted using tea!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Enjoying my morning coffee in a favourite mug which was given to me by my friend Howard Sanner. I know very little about its origins but I find it very pleasing!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

#HiddenHornPlayer spotted in Sânnicolau Mare, near Timisoara, Romania by Jeroen Billiet! Love it!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

Well... this is very curious! Spotted in the magazine of the village Oggebbio at Lake Maggiore by my colleague at Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag, Alexandra Nepomnyashchaya... We'll have to find the original somehow!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

I'm really happy to see the publication of "The Sound of Brass", the proceedings of the 2018 Fifth International Romantic Brass Symposium. This was a particularly thought provoking event to be involved in and I found my research for my contribution went in some particularly unforeseen directions!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Well, this is EXTRAORDINARILY exciting!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

The opening of Weber's Oberon is very well known to horn players but there's plenty of other exposed sections for us in this magical work - here's the denouement from Act III when Huon sounds the horn, enchanting his enemies into dance. Here's this bit in rehearsal last week.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

Here's a peak behind the scenes - our rehearsal last Thursday morning before the performance of Weber's Oberon at the BBC Proms. Thanks to Jakob Lehmann who shared the footage with me. Monteverdi Choir & Orchestras

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

A whole section of magic horn players! So delighted to spend the last few days playing Weber's opera Oberon with this lovely section. Huge thanks to Martin Lawrence, Peter Moutoussis, Gijs Laceulle and Sarah Brien for some enchanting playing!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

Oh if ONLY is was that simple on the "real" horn! This really made me smile! A horn kazoo sent to me by my Teatro Nuovo buddy, clarinetist Elise Bonhivert. Love it!

Here's Katy Bircher's footage of the magnificent stairwell in which she discovered the #HiddenHornPlayers (and their horn carrying dog!).

010

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

These are glorious! And an incredible spot by my colleague, flautist Katy Bircher!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

These are spectacular! Spotted by my colleague (and epic horn player) Steve Stirling whilst performing Cosi fan tutte at Opera Holland Park in London. This sculpture by Andrew Burton is entitled Annunciation. #HiddenHorn

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Just returned from the final instalment of Les Boréades with A Nocte Temporis. Such a wondrous piece and a joy to perform (the horn parts encompassing brilliant exuberance, boisterous dances and tender yearning)- especially with such a great bunch of musicians.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

One of the great things about giving masterclasses is the privilege of meeting so many talented and committed young musicians. I had the pleasure of meeting Nick Culver last month as part of my classes at Eastmann -

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

I am totally in awe of Gabriella Ibarra - she has so many talents! Not only is she a top notch horn player, she's also a high level researcher, teacher, editor and ... has a whole other enterprise making jewellery.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

More from Ravello! We all are rather "glowing" after a fantastic (and rather warm!) concert.

010

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Huge thanks to the talented Philippe Genestier who got these wonderful shots of the Pygmalion horn section at our final concert in Ravello - what a magnificent setting!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Found it! The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley horn studio were also at the recent International Horn Society Symposium in Kraków. They spotted this #HiddenHorn and challenged me to find it - I only saw it on my way to the airport so it was a lucky spot!

010

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Ensemble Pygmalion are on to the next thing already (Brahms, Schubert and Wagner in Montpellier tonight...) but a moment to reflect on the recent Mozart Requiem project

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

The International Horn Society symposiums are always a highlight of my year - and being one of the featured artists at this IHS58 in Kraków last week was an absolute joy.

130

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 10/07/2026

Spotted this fragmented horn as part of the Georg Solti statute outside of the Liszt Academy in Budapest!

020

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

An incredibly apt #HiddenHorn for today! I'm heading to Kraków tomorrow for the International Horn Society 58th symposium where I'm appearing as a Featured Artist.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

We've reached the end of a busy year for the natural horn class at Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag / Royal Conservatoire The Hague - to celebrate the class took a little trip to a local restaurant, the aptly named Bodega De Posthoorn!

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

What do a bunch of Pygmalion musicians do on a day off? In a heat wave? Why... get together to spend the afternoon playing chamber music! Huge thanks to my lovely colleagues for joining me in rehearsing repertoire in preparation for a concert I have next week! Love this music!

A pair of #HiddenHornPlayers spotted fellow horn player Janire de Paz Rivas adorning the organ in the Pelstergasthuis, in Groningen where she was performing with Podium Auxesis recently.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 28/06/2026

The International Horn Society big shindig in Kraków is just around the corner - I'm excited to be participating as one of the Featured Artists - IHS asked me what I was going to be performing and what I was looking forward to....

020

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

How about this for the ULTIMATE in #HiddenHorns? The most wonderful end of term gift from my lovely (and multi-talented!) student Janire De Paz Rivas. Full of word searches, tongue twisters, mazes, crosswords and quizzes - all horn related.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

Random post box spotted in Lübeck last month whilst there for the Pygmalion performance of Bach's Mass in B minor.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

A bit of a flash back combined with a "new" release! Back in 2021 I recoded Mozart's Concert in E flat KV 495 with the Orchestre des Pays de Savoie conducted by Pieter-Jelle de Boer. A little unusually for me, at least for this particular piece, it was on modern horn!

150

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

A great action shot! BWV 140 (Wachet auf) performed in the Nikolaikirche in Leipzig on Wednesday night.

050

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 17/06/2026

Looking forward to participating in the final concert of the Leipzig Bachfest tonight in the Nikolaikirche - where I spotted this #HiddenHorn earlier!

010

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

Seeing #HiddenHorns EVERYWHERE - this hint of a horn was spotted by fellow horn player Ellie Jenkins who picked it out in the “tree of life” sculptural wall at First Unitarian Universalist Church of San Diego

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 14/06/2026

This was a bit of a find yesterday in Cologne. I happened to walk past these huge metal gates - the doors to the Gürzenich, the historic festival hall in the city. #HiddenHorn

030

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 12/06/2026

This is smashing! Another image from Versailles reflecting the tradition of hunting that was popular there. But a bit of a different one! This was spotted in the hotel room of my colleague, & fellow participant in the recent a nocte temporis tour, Tomas Kral at the Hotel D'angleterre, Versailles .

010

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 10/06/2026

So very proud of all of these fine musicians. Congratulations to all the historic horn players who participated in the end of year presentations at Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag - Royal Conservatoire The Hague on Monday.

Anneke Scott @annekescott.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

Another favourite! There's a few of these dotted about Versailles - a conch shell playing #HiddenHornPlayer triton (one of Neptune's servants!)
