Creative Horn Collective

The Creative Horn Collective, comprised of the Pacific Northwest’s best improvising French horn players, performs their original and specially arranged compositions unlike anything you have experienced before.

Led by Matt Shevrin horn player, composer and arranger, the CHC is making its debut performance at Good Shepherd’s Chapel Performance Space. Originally appearing as The Jazz French Horn All Stars in 2025 in Seattle, they showcase their originally composed and arranged jazz and freely improvised pieces tailored to the rich and full sound of this beautiful and majestic instrument. The cavernous acoustics of the Chapel will intensify these qualities as the ensemble improvises over modern jazz and experimental musical selections.

The CHC includes the following players: Matt Shevrin, Tom Varner, Jeffrey Snedeker, Greg Campbell, Hayden Douglass, Mike Simpson, Matt Anderson, Josiah Boothby, Danielle Kulmann. Supporting players include Tom Cole on bass and Paul Blaney on drums.
