I guess what I'm wondering is if anyone really sees the intrinsic value of reviving the instrument. Many of us were forced to play the "child of unwed parents" in our high school and college marching days. Does anyone feel the instrument deserves its few moments in the spotlight now and again?

So I guess you play yhe mozart concerti on a natural horn?
I guess my question is this: as horn players, what are your feelings toward these other instruments, and what are your feelings on performing them as intended by the composer?
Personally I feel that it is both unfair to the history of said instruments, and unfair to the composers' original and intended visions. There's my two cents
