Utilizing an evolving assembly of players, the group has performed at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago’s Pritzker Pavilion, the Green Mill, the Chopin Theater, Northeastern Illinois University. The name for the group arose simply from wanting to have horns but thinking that John Elmquist’s Horn Group sounded a little mundane, so I thought about the Horn & Hardart automat and decided to use the Hardart part." ensemble webpage
