I remember seeing a recording somewhere on a (modern) basset horn in F,
with the liner notes noting the initial scoring for basset horn in G,
and claiming that this would have been the likely modern transcription
(and that the modern basset horn in F was about the same pitch as
Mozart-era basset horn in G anyway, so ...).

I'm all in favour of more recordings of the basset horn, but ... gimmick
alert. :-)
