Am I the only one who loves french horns?

Yep, you're the only one Erik......

Love the sound of "the horn." Off the top of my head, favorites are Stauss's horn concertos 1 & 2 and Mozart's horn concertos.

I could listen to the VPO's horns all day long. They use Vienna horns which are smaller and use different valves than the typical French horn.
So mellow and smooth.

Forgot to add Mozart's Horn Quintet in E flat major.

Re: Mozart horn concertos, I highly recommend Karajan/Philarmonia Orchestra,
recorded 1953.

Mozart, of course. But also Adam Unsworth's "Excerpt This." Brilliant!
