As a hornist, we are omnipresent.

I am very glad that there is a bassoon part, I am the only one in my high school for seven years.

[@Benny.334]

Im in music school and i rlly wanna try this wuth my classmates, exept no ones a basoon sadly

[@sigmasquaredmusic]

If you reach out to me through my website, I can usually provide a transposed part to sub out an instrument.

[@jackforlife101]

Does your school have Bass Clarinets? Bass Clarinets can usually get the range of a bassoon.

[@bonez_vibezzminecraft1222]

As a saxophonist, I feel very left out.

[@sigmasquaredmusic]

Sax quintet version coming soon!

[@pIanetarium]

I’m doing this for my winter concert and my director just rewrote the bassoon part for the saxes, so if you have the time and patience..

[@aPersonWhoHasViolins]

Saxophones don't appear in classical woodwind quintets.

[@breadman7012]

But aren’t horns brass instruments?

[@Eli-music484]

They are! However, they play in woodwind quintets because of the nice way that the warm timbre of the horn interacts with those instruments!

[@AshesToK9]

French horns are treated just like saxophones and can be classified as either in technicallity

[@BananzaTripod-ed6pk]

Hey shhhhhhhh, we’re forgotten and always play with the saxes, so we just snuck in

[@LowkBandKidorFade]

Yes but we’re losers and can be classified as a saxophone because of our sound.

[@thomasomahony6565]

Horn in F (French horn) is not a woodwind it's a brass. If you meant Wind (as in instruments you blow into) that would be better.

[@sigmasquaredmusic]

This ensemble is standard instrumentation and can be called either Woodwind Quintet or Wind Quintet. It comes from the classical period when there wasn't really a distinction between brass and woodwind instruments as there is today. Historically, horns have played together with woodwinds because their timbre blends nicely.
