In treble clef, Horns in D are written up a minor 7th from concert
pitch.
So, a written C in the 3rd space sounds as the D above middle C.
In bass clef, the notes are written a step below sounding pitch.
So, a C on
the first ledger line above the bass clef staff (middle C), will
sound as
the D one step higher.
A trick you might be able to use is this: For treble clef parts in
D, just
imagine it's alto clef, and that gives you your concert pitch.

Ok, Horn players .... I'm confused (not a new thing). I'm
transcribing a
Mendelsshon overture for Wind Ensemble .... the orchestra score
lists the
Horns as "Cor. in D". What is the concert pitch for a given note
in that
part? For the most part, they are written quite high, so I've
have to
believe if I'm transcribing for F Horns (which I am), that the
concert
pitches have gotta be lower ... no?
Appreciate any help ...
