The four Horn Concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart were written for his friend Joseph Leutgeb, whom he had known since childhood. Leutgeb was a skilled player, and the works are difficult to perform on the natural horn of the period, requiring lip trills , much hand-stopping , and rapid tonguing .

The hand horn technique developed in the classical period, with music pieces requiring the use of covering the bell to various degrees to lower the pitch accordingly. Mozart's four Horn Concertos, Concert Rondo and Morceau de Concert were written with this technique in mind, as was the music both Beethoven and Brahms wrote for the horn.
In 1849, Robert Schumann explored the horn as a solo instrument, dedicating to it an "Adagio and Allegro," Op. 70, before embarking on the composition of an orchestral work featuring four solo horns (having also composed the "Five Songs based on Heinrich Laube's Hunting Compendium" for men's choir and four horns, Op. 137 that same year).
