HORNMIDI

Those of us old enough to remember the early days of the internet and early horn websites will recall the great work of Sharon Zurflieh who created and maintained the wonderful website, hornmidi.com, also called the Obedient Accompanist. Hornmidi had dozens of midi accompaniment files for horn solos and chamber works. Thanks to Facebook, we were able to connect with Sharon and she agreed to allow KBHC to host these files on our website. All files without credits were created by Sharon Zurflieh.

If you have any midi accompaniment files you would like to contribute, contact us and we’ll be happy to add them to this collection. If you want to be informed on the latest changes to this page, like our facebook page facebook.com/hornmidi

Note on iPhone/iPad use: These devices do not come with a built-in Midi player. You must purchase an app for this purpose. We have tested Sweetmidi successfully, but you may want to research midi apps before making a purchase.
