Let's not forget about Rosseti.  I haven't been able to find much of his
other output, but he wrote at least a half dozen horn concertos which are
almost as good, IMHO, as the Mozart concerti.  Great little gems which are
rarely performed or recorded.  The double concerto attributed to him is
fantastic, and many of us believe that the double concerto attributed to
Michael Haydn was also written by Rosseti.  Anyone know about this?
