The french horn can reach 2 octaves above middle C (concert pitch: the F a fifth below) and down to the C two octaves below middle C (again, concert pitch a fifth down from this note), giving it a four octave range. the higher and lower notes are very difficult to play though, and so are rarely used by composers.
