K 495 Horn Concerto No 4 E flat major

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 4 in E-flat major, K. 495 was completed in 1786. The manuscript, written in red, green, blue, and black ink, was formerly considered as a jocular attempt to rattle the intended performer, Mozart's friend Joseph Leutgeb. However, it is now believed that the multicolored score may be also a kind of "color code". It was Mozart's last horn concerto.
