In May 1765 Haydn's employer,
Prince Nikolaus
employed two new horn players,
Franz Stamitz and Joseph Dietzl,
bringing the strength of the horn
section back to four, as it had been
a few years previously. Haydn took
advantage of this and wrote four
symphonies using four horns. You
might think, so what, four horns are
normal in a modern orchestra, but as
the orchestra was still quite small,
doubling the horn section to four made
a big alteration to the sound. In addition
to the normal string section, there is a
flute and two oboes.

Natural Horn
The instrument is fitted with a series of changeable medial crooks within the outer coil,
so that it could be played in a number of different keys.
