Thank you, Bill, I got a lot down loaded including the Titl
Serenade twice for cello, flute & harpe  replacing horn,
flute & piano/harpe & the orchestra versionfrom 1902. Have
it by my own on very early schellack with (I think) Oscar
Hieber & Gustav Kaleve (whom I met on his 90th birthday,
when we held a concert for him, but some 30 years ago).
Surely more to find at this giant collection.

Klaus, try

For those who don't know this resource, the friendly library
sprites at Indiana U. have given us quite a few opera and
symphonic full scores, all scrollable online. Highlights
include Strauss' "Ariadne,"  
Wagner's "Lohengrin," "Tristan" and "Parsifal," " Weber's
"Freischuetz," seven Bruckner symphonies, Beethoven, Brahms
and quite a bit more that's horn oriented (as well as plenty
of other good music).

Afterwards I recommend a stop at UC Santa Barbara's  http://
cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/

Here over 6,000 early cylinder recordings are on offer as
MP3s or 24- bit WAV files. Finding pieces of interest to
hornists takes a bit of looking, and there are
disappointments like the 1911 Alice Guszalewicz rendition of
"Komm, Hoffnung" from "Fidelio" -- a band version where the
obbligato horn trio is replaced by clarinets. But Gustav
Heim and the Waldhorn Quartet's "Post in the Forest" is
there in 24-bit quality, as are three salon pieces by our
very own Henri Kling. Also hard to resist are Charlus' "La
leçon de cor" (ignore the
cor-substitute) and the 1903 ditty "Waiting for the Dinner
Horn to Blow."
