Mozart's 4th Horn Concerto - 3rd movement?
Can anyone find this for me. It was a comical recording of this piece of music about the noisy neighbor who played his horn. Ring a bell? I'd be very grateful to find it and play it for my kids.

This is the one you want - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHWnFJ4_61U ... and you can buy a very cheap second-hand CD which includes the comic song version of the 3rd movement (it also includes all the Mozart horn concertos) at Amazon - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Scottish-Chamber-Orchestra...
(The comical recording is on track 14)
The words - http://www.hornplanet.com/hornpage/museum/articles...
EDIT. @John: It's about a noisy neighbour AND a lost horn -
"I once had a whim and I had to obey it,
To buy a French horn in a second-hand shop.
I polished it up and I started to play it,
In spite of the neighbours who begged me to stop".

The words to the song "Ill Wind" were written by Michael Flanders and performed by him and piano-playing Donald Swann who made the piano arrangement.
It's not about a noisy neighbour, but about a lost horn: "There was the case, but the horn itself was missing."
