There is a piece by Florent Schmitt named Lied et Scherzo for Solo Horn w:
Piccolo
Flute
Oboe
English Horn
2 Clar. in Bb
Horn
2 Bassoons
Its a little larger than a woodwind quintet but
the piece is a real nice number for solo horn and double woodwind quintet.

Very wise, Paul. The other way is more costly (demounting & remounting,
soldering the receiver & cutting then perfectly) but safe.
Folding the end of the tail weakens this part of the horn, a part which
should be extremely strong to absorb the twist, when the screw bell is
demounted, at least some
