Paul, not only for these works. There are delicate high arias in some of Mozart dramatic works or in Haydns sinfonias or in pre-classic symphonic works, which can be played on the double horn easily, but sound much better if a descant horn is used, as the sound is thinner. But, one has to know, how to make a descant horn sound nice & sweet & make it sing. This is not easy & needs a lot of experience. ============================================================ =============
