Well, the 2nd movement doesn't fit either. So, here are excerpts:
0:00 -
The opening of the movement, probably the most famous horn solo in history. There's a little solo clarinet countermelody that joins in, but it's mostly about the horn.
2:49 -
Clarinet solo that introduces the secondary theme.
3:16 -
First theme returns in the strings. This part has a really cool effect- the strings/horn/bassoon have a compound (triplet feel) meter while the clarinet/oboe solos are in simple meter (duple feel) with 16th notes, for a very cool 3-against-4 rhythm tension throughout.
5:24 -
The end of the movement. The building tension is released in loud chords, then the strings finish with a nostalgic-feeling melody from the beginning. There's some cool clarinet/bassoon stuff too. The movement ends with unison clarinets.

At :35 the strings I was rehearsing this with made my jaw drop. Hearing that lovely warm sound was not something I heard ever at SCCC.
Earlier that day the conductor gave me the solo to test my sight-reading skills. She said I focused on getting tones correct more than rhythms the moment I would slip up when sight-reading....or was it the other way around? I can't remember. XD
The other hornist ended up playing that solo but she was more nervous than me about it when sight-reading it, she told me. She was a bit relieved when we learned that we weren't going to perform the piece.
