why is the french horn in the woodwind quintet?

Content: All of the woodwinds in the WW quintet have greater ranges than this. Finally, although the sax is a great solo instrument and in an ensemble of only saxophones has a most unique sound, it does not blend well with the traditional woodwinds. Whereas, the French horn (especially with the right hand in the bell muting its sound) blends very well with woodwinds. Only a very limited part of the mid-range of saxophones blend well with the other woodwinds. However, having said all of this, the idea of using a saxophone with flute, oboe, clarinet and bassoon intrigues me. I like to compose and arrange chamber music. Although, I just can't wrap my 'ears' around the sound just yet, I'm going to experiment with writing something with that combination of instruments :-)
