I know you were asking about horns, but a flute/recorder friend of
mine mentioned in passing that the Barenreiter edition of Handel's
Water Music has the flute part( (in the G major suite)  in the
original French violin clef and it was for a flute tuned to G. She
hated the fact she was having to do three types of transposing on the
fly: the clef, the key, and then the octave required.


Thanks
