I think it is referring to Cape Horn in South Africa that ships circumvent in traveling in that area. It has nothing to do with music.
Answer
The "Horn" is Cape Horn, the southernmost tip of South America, which has some of the wildest wind, waves, rocky shores and currents in the world, and was especially difficult and challenging for sailing ships to travel westwards (into the prevailing westerly gales). So "rounding the horn" was a significant accomplishment.
