If there is a track on The Singing Horn that perfectly captures Mary Beth Orr’s ethos as both a musician and storyteller, it’s “Good and True.” Part of her ambitious 26-track release on Big Round Records, the song blends her folk sensibility with the elegance of classical horn performance, creating a moment that feels intimate yet universal.
Orr’s voice, warm and grounded, wraps around the melody like a trusted friend’s hand on your shoulder. Her French horn work answers in kind, in rich and golden tones that rise and fall in quiet conversation with the vocal line. It is a rare combination of classical precision paired with folk accessibility. The song isn’t just a showcase of skill, but an invitation into Orr’s personal space, where sincerity matters more than spectacle.
From Global Stages to Personal Moments
Moreover, Orr is already celebrated as the 3rd Horn of the Grand Rapids Symphony. Her resume includes performances with the Detroit Symphony and the Charleston Symphony, as well as multiple international competition wins. Yet “Good and True” proves that her artistry is as much about connection as it is about credentials or recognitions.
Her March 2025 album has already earned Silver Outstanding Achievement Honours at the Global Music Awards. It is easy to hear why. This track is proof of the project’s emotional core, thus what she calls “a love letter to my life, and to yours.” Take a moment, listen, and discover what it has in store for you.
Meanwhile, Mary Beth Orr’s “Good and True” is more than a song title; it’s a promise. She delivers honesty in every note, weaving voice and horn into something timeless. Whether you come for the folk charm or the classical mastery, you will leave with something that feels deeply human.
