Natale ("Neptune's Vengeance"?!?) pondered:

<<<So, just why IS there a french horn in a woodwind quintet?>>>

If we're pondering . . . why do they call it a "French" horn? It's German!

They don't even have French Dips in France. (Or English Muffins in England,
for that matter).

What's English about a cor anglais?
