Dawn,
I think that there is another answer: You simply aren't seeing the
music that has the good horn parts. Trust me, there are composers
and arrangers of modern band music who definitely know how to write
good horn parts.

One other listing I saw quickly was about
horn arrangements for band. There definitely needs to be more
harmony and melody in
modern band arrangements for horn. There is so much more to the
horn than just a back up
drum (omm-pah's) or all the horns having the same one line harmony.
