From alpine roots to the concert hall
The alphorn as a solo concert instrument
An artistic project that places the alphorn at the heart of contemporary musical discourse, with proposals for orchestra, symphonic band, chamber music, educational and outreach formats, and staged projects.
Drawing on an international career as an orchestral horn player, Jose Higueras develops an artistic line that brings together sonic heritage, interpretive sensitivity and stage presence, presenting the alphorn as a contemporary voice within the professional world of classical music.

The alphorn preserves a unique relationship with space. Its sound is not merely performed: it expands, inhabits distance, and transforms the listener’s perception.
This project is born from that quality, proposing a new presence for the instrument within the professional world of classical music, bringing together roots, stage and contemporaneity.
