Mozart left to horn players a lasting legacy of iconic works. Like double bass players, constantly being asked if they ‘had wished they played the flute’ – strangers whistle the opening bars of the famous Rondo of K.495 to horn players innocently wishing to go about their business. Either that, or they sing ‘I found my horn, gorn,’ in the immortal words of Michael Flanders. Alongside one of Mozart’s most memorable works - the Quintet in E flat for horn and strings K.447 - Anneke Scott and the Consone Quartet illustrate the various ways in which Mozart’s works have been “appropriated” for the horn with the virtuosic theme and variations written for London’s most famous horn player of the 19th century, Giovanni Puzzi, plus perform a work Mozart “appropriated” for himself with the curious history of Michael Haydn’s Romance for horn and strings.
